Aaarrrghh! This is killing me. Not going to the 24 this year. Doing the Classic with my old man. I think I should stop reading these threads for the sake of my mental health.

Great news! Hope they won't close that 'loophole' by the actual week.

No, actually it will be guided visits (see: necessity for special accreditations to enter - and the necessity to have them returned after the visit) from the Audi Fan Area in the village. It will not be advertised too much and as it is a bit of an exclusive area for the ACO, the staff at the counter wil reserve the right to hand out an invitation or not depending on how crowded it is in there.

Actually we were planning to offer watching the first quali sessions on Wed and Thursday from there to Forum members, should anyone be interested....?

Can I, by any chance, be considered a forum member? It's probably a once-in-a-life opportunity to be there.

McNish had his moment a bit further, though, on the braking, I don't think that exact spot near the bridge is dangerous.

I think you were there before lunch on Sunday, Bernard.
I was there for an hour in the afternoon and saw no controllers.

No betting on chances next weekend!
