Happy Snapper · 16 Aug 2005, 06:03 (Ref:1383290)

Just sorting final plans ferry booked, hotel booked, just need to pack bag and fuel car!

Bernard Bram · 16 Aug 2005, 11:31 (Ref:1383511)

Well, after going to Spa and Silverstone i guess i'll make it three out of five this year. Hopefully this time the weather will be better.

MikeHoyer · 16 Aug 2005, 12:30 (Ref:1383575)

Cool, I'll look into that, maybe the Eurotunnel aswell, as it was very cheap when we went to Spa a few weeks ago.

Truckosaurus · 16 Aug 2005, 15:04 (Ref:1383707)

The media centre is miles from the media car park (which is at the front enterance of the circiut) and up and down lots of stairs but its nice once you get there! If you need to collect passes and stuff its usually at the hotel past the car park where you get the tickets for a lap of the ring! Eurotunnel appears cheap at the present I use Seafrance but this time I have been given tickets for P&O

MikeHoyer · 17 Aug 2005, 00:35 (Ref:1384177)

Well, after Spa and Silverstone I'm quite used to walking miles on end

Nice avatar btw, Robert

BTW , its not a too far walk from the press park to the media centre. Just pass the street with the pedestrian bridge , enter the track at the entrance close to the Nurburgring Erlebnisswelt and take the (Michelin?) Bridge to pass the track...then you are directly in the paddock and its not far to the media center

Paddy_NL · 17 Aug 2005, 00:43 (Ref:1384183)

Those mad Dutch will be there too, undoutibly....

marcush. · 17 Aug 2005, 09:08 (Ref:1384409)

of course I´ll be there ....as I work and live there...

Or go under the track through the tunnel, if it is open. I should be there in either the Tampolli, a Saleen or another LMP2.

If any one has good photos of the #22 car at Silverstone, let me know:

spectre200 · 20 Aug 2005, 21:57 (Ref:1387164)

I'm hoping to go for the first time. Does anyone have any info on camping (where and how much)? Thanks in advance.

MikeHoyer · 29 Aug 2005, 14:19 (Ref:1393713)

Yeah same here, we will be camping, hopefully somewhere not too far from the media centre.

hgb · 29 Aug 2005, 14:49 (Ref:1393724)

Robert you are correct, that's the Michelin bridge.

tommy84 · 29 Aug 2005, 21:25 (Ref:1394052)

I will also be there after Spa my 2nd round then and actually the ring is my homecircuit with a 110km/1h drive

We camp on the parking lot A7 as the camping ground müllenbach is quite expensive.

We had a bad experience with camping costs at Zolder this weekend, so we camp now for no money

Hope it works, but it shouldn't be a problem as I always see camping cars there

@mike: the parking lot a7 is right at the paddock entry (the tunnel) on the other side of the local road

Paddy_NL · 29 Aug 2005, 22:05 (Ref:1394083)

We're looking at a Silverstone-repeat, as the English rain has taken all LeMans-dust off our flag by now

brielga · 30 Aug 2005, 08:42 (Ref:1394280)

I will be there as well (first time in the Ring), after Spa, LM and the Spa FIA-GT 24hrs this will be my season closure. Next year we're going for more races and even possibly Sebring!!!

panoz.lmp1 · 30 Aug 2005, 12:34 (Ref:1394444)

The fastest way to the media centre is the tunnel under the start/finishing line after walking over the pedestrian bridge. The tunnel ended direct in front of the elevator to 2nd floor.

Paddy_NL · 5 Sep 2005, 12:47 (Ref:1399488)

as promised...

MikeHoyer · 5 Sep 2005, 13:47 (Ref:1399523)
