Don't care who you are, how much you have, how powerful you are. You still sit on the toilet with your pants around your ankles. Yep, it's a level playing field..

Yes, back in 2000 but I was pit crew so slept in the paddock and watched from the pits blah blah blah.
Do remember some excellent restaurants down at the marina/quay. Great fish dishes and all paid for by Stephane Mertens. Which was nice.
The corkscrew like section is steep having walked up it.
Oh and I found a night club under the main stand that didn’t start till 2 or 3 o/c am – god I was rough all day.

What was that - two 25cl bottles or a case of "Sunstroke"
Of all the things I have ever lost, I miss my mind the most .....

Re: Estoril 2010
Haha... so there is another member of the 25cl club... hmm.
Which would be the best grand stand to watch from do you think??
The plan so far, Serena, my better half, and I will be flying over on the Thursday, Bristol-Lisbon and home on the Monday, Just watching the bikes on the Sunday, We'll be doing some other site seeing things... YAWN.... think it's a fair compromise though. But if anyone else is thinking of going with half an idea of which grand stands are best etc, be great to pick your brains about things...
The general admission looks a bit of a tiny area, with viewing around rest of the track area exclusive to grandstand seating.
Reckon it'd be ok to turn upand buy tickets there or best book before???
