Every year I always try to visit a Formula 1 race, and over the years if have been experiencing the excitement of the races on several tracks all over Europe, and I always came back home a happy man.
I never forget the first time I walked up the famous Eau Rouge corner at Spa Francochamps on the actual track, you never know how steep that hill is before you have seen it yourself.
This year though I had saved some more cash and I was going to the mother of all Grand Prix's the one in Monaco. I could not imagine how it would be like to see F1 cars race to the narrow streets of the Principality with speeds round Km per hour. As I arrived on Wednesday before the race the place was humming with excitement of the days to come.
I checked into my hotel in the afternoon and went searching for a local watering hole, but all the places I visited I got a shock. Prizes where very high and I did not want to spent all my cash the first night in town. So I did what any normal guy would do and went back to my hotel and got a good night of rest. Thursday, now this was the day where all the track excitement was starting.
There would be practice sessions for the Formula 1 and 2 and also the Porsche Cup and in the afternoon the first Formula 2 race. I enjoyed myself all-day long at my place at the grandstands, only leaving them for a little "pit stop", and after all track action stopped I walked back to my hotel for dinner with some other guys I met that day.
