I have been to Shanghai GP twice and both times i have seated at turn 1, just right at the end of the straight away passing the grandstand. The sound was not as crazy like the grandstand where the cars fly by on WOT, but you can hear them down shifting, the exhausts make loud popping sound like gun shots and see the cars turning through corner. Grandstand is good for seeing pit stops and podium.

I couldn't disagree more with that.
Hellmund is the sole entire reason the race is even going on in the first place. And the breach of contract was because the money didn't show up on time, this was not Hellmund's fault as he was simply the promoter, McCombs is the money. Then, after he got the contract, designed the track with Tilke, and placed all the blocks to build this thing; they try to squeeze him out at the end. Which is the cause for the lawsuit.

Although, that popping exhaust sound is banned this year. But still great feedback, thank you.

In my (1 race) experience, i think pit exit/turn 1 was the most exciting. At least for Korea GP, but I think it would correlate to other tracks. Main Grandstands would only be good for race start/lauch and the podium...my opinion. I think either back in the esses or pit exit/turn 1 at any track would prove most exciting.
Especially Austin like you said being the highest point, Turn 1 there might be best for that added bonus! Looking at maps and what videos are out there and stuff, I think the run up to turn 1 would be pretty good, either there or back in the esses.

Pitpass.com has also tipped him to replace the former AllSport managing director. Which could also be the 'on-deck' position for the man who will eventually take over for Ecclestone. Though, I'm sure how Hellmund handles this whole situation will heavily influence the AllSport deal.

Anybody else try to get a refund back from these guys? Seems like it is harder to accomplish than they made it sound. Additionally, now there is a fee from paypal to get the cash back. I don't remember seeing that when I made the deposit, but their site (COTA) has since been updated to reflect that.

I'm just going to wait for general ticket information and go from there. I prefer watching from a slow corner, e.g. Laguna Seca Turn 5. |

I was hoping I would get more insight on the tickets dilemma here but its the same no matter where you go on the web. Everyone, everywhere is hoping this race goes through but nothing is certain. I am still waiting for prices to even bother looking into hotels/flights/rentals etc...
