isn't it like 300 bucks for the step below vip which is for the entire weekend? but it's even cheaper to pay for the 1 day pass on sundays. i'd go but i rather go if friends go and none of them wants to go because they're just not as hardcore as me when it comes to F1.

Smile Formula One

I went several years ago and it was one of the most amazing venues, went for all three days, so saw practice sessions as well as the qualifying. We had silver seating (fairly $$$) right at the hairpin turn, so had an incredible view of the cars braking hard and then shifting up again for the straightaway. As far as accommodations go, we stayed at McGill (?) Univ. pretty cheaply and left the car parked there, walked and took the metro all around...Mtl is great for that. Word of advice: if u're going, bring earplugs...man, it's loud! But if u get the chance, ABSOLUTELY GO!!!, it's an incredible time and worth the $$$.

It was a good time.. I went with my bro and we stayed in a hotel near the airport.. it was a little bit of a drive but it was pretty much all we could find last minute.. other than going to the races and hanging out at the hotel we went to the casino and thats about it.. you could go into Montreal and party tho.. walk around the old part of town.. we were tired out by night time so we didn't bother..

We're prolly gonna hit up St.Catherines st. er something...I've been to Quebec City, and that was pretty awesome. I hear alot of good things about Montreal.
