The crowds really came out this year. Biggest attendance since '89.
It didn't really make things more difficult (although I'm sure a few had some experiences). You just had to plan things a bit further in advance - for instance if you wanted to watch from a grandstand in qualifying.
The Friday pitwalk basically ground to a halt outside the Audi garages due to huge weight of numbers but eventually got going again.
It will be interesting to see whether it kicks on next year with the arrival of Nissan.
