We had reserved seating which was continuously offered to us until covid hit.

We were at the Thursday event and then it all went to hell from there. Once covid came through, they stopped giving us our same seats and we've stuggled to get a spot in the grand stand since. That and the prices have more than doubled.

This year we have the basic GA entry for the 4 days without access to the grandstands on day 3 or 4. But that's ok.

Max Verstappen has claimed his third straight Formula 1 world title on Sunday morning after a truly chaotic Qatar Grand Prix Sprint race.

While the Red Bull superstar wrapped up yet another crown, it was Australian rookie Oscar Piastri who reigned supreme after the 19-lap race.

Piastri’s win was McLaren’s first since Daniel Ricciardo triumphed for them at the 2021 Italian Grand Prix and it was only the second time this season that Red Bull had been defeated.

It's a game. Enjoy it. :D

Red Bull chief blames 'mental problem' for Riccardo pace

https://www.gpfans.com/en/f1-news/10169 ... l-problem/

'The Australian driver has been out-qualified by his teammate Yuki Tsunoda at every race this season...

...

Helmut Marko, who is unopposed to removing underperforming drivers abruptly, has had his say on where Ricciardo’s issues lie this season.

According to Mundo Deportivo he said: "Each driver sees the other's data and they have the same car. Daniel has shown in the past that he is a fast driver, so it is something mental. He has a mental problem.”'
