How much was your budget?

I assume a week at Japan will be to the tune of $5K CAD per person when all said and done?

wha...... masterclass by Max again, keeping Lando away from DRS, but he should also thank Zac Brown for not ordering to let Piastri thru... I truly believe it couldve been Piastri 1, Max 2, Lando 3 if team orders were involved.

I'm happy for a max win, Yuki didn't do horrible by any means though, considering the field barely moved.

So you guys that went, what was the experience like?

The race is boring AF and the track is pretty meh but I’m sure as a spectator it’s pretty similar no matter where you go. If you can indulge me as per the cost of the tickets, type of tickets, and where you stayed

Pretty exciting.

Ferrari had a good run till SC leveled everyones tires.

When I saw George on the softs for the retart, I thought it was gonna be McLaren 1+2 with Lecler finishing the top 3. Super impressive that George made the tire last.

Max having the worse pit stops and getting caught out by the SC to finish 6th... incredible

George is a stud - he maximises points as well as Max, is probably 3rd quickest on a single lap (Max & Charles ahead), is probably 3rd or 4th best at race pace (Max, Lewis, maybe Sainz). Has really matured driving with Mercedes.

Was our first f1 experience and although the race wasn't the most exciting, it was still fun to be in the atmosphere. We were already planning to go Japan during that time anyways and F1 was more a detour for us. The crowd was good and Japanese people are polite.

We were sitting at the Yuki fan section paid 48,000 yen each
https://www.suzukacircuit.jp/eng/f1/ticket/seat_c.html

Stayed in Nagoya, chain hotel APA, was about 250 cad a night

Only attended the track on Sat / Sun
Friday we went to the Toyota museum
Monday, we left for Tokyo

For qualifying on Saturday we took the Kintetsu line, booked seats online at 7am day of for 1030 am train, and it brought us from Nagoya station to Shiroko station, from there we hopped on a shuttle bus that brought us directly to the track. https://www.reddit.com/r/GrandPrixTr...cuit/#lightbox

On race day, we took a direct shuttle from Nagoya station to and from the track on race day. 80 bucks per person- had to be prebooked prior. Bought the event and shuttle tickets back in Nov last year.

If we do it again, we might do it differently like rent our own car.

You can PM me if you have any questions
