Expensive, but still way cheaper than F1 in the US. And you get a better show. I'm not rich, but I do pretty well and I have no mortgage, I can afford to go see my favorite band in other countries. For what I'd spend on 1 US race I can to 2 or 3 trips to Europe to see my favorite band. And I'd get a hell of a lot more entertainment out of it.

My sentiments too. For me the 80's through 90's were my favorite period. Loved going to Montreal and Detroit on consective weekends. Those were the days.

It´s one of the better good old fashioned journalism (in the good sense) samples I have read in a long time.
Biased? sure. Showing her opinion? yes.
Well built and well written, absolutely.
Me, I have passed a similar experience (1 or probably 2 magnitude orders underneath) when I was invited to a Ferrari Finals Festival in Valencia. I had VIP pass (the thing came from a watch brand thanks to my wife´s job) and went thru places where tons of food and other luxuries flowed.
I was impressed in a similar scale.
I understand this woman.
Yes, Outstanding! :D
