CANADIAN FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX

Worried at first booking tickets with a company I knew nothing about but all went wonderfully. Make sure you read all the useful circuit advice, good directions to the stands on the book F1 website. Seats were good with a great view. Stand 31 is quick to get to and the undergroung trip was easy to the circuit. Would recommend book F1 to get tickets.

I went for 8 days,Monday to Monday.£333 flight ticket,Heathrow to Montreal direct.Return Montreal-Ottawa -Heathrow.20 min.internal flight.Talked my way in on the Tuesday as I didn't have a pass.vendors only.Found grandstand and seat.Walked around the rest of the circuit in the sunshine.Open day on the Thursday brilliant.I met Force India mechanics on the Monday at the airport,had invite to garage.Met the Hulk ,spare driver.1-2-1 with grid girl and engineers.given full tour,held Sutils steering wheel,photos also.Getting to track easy,metro fast ,efficient,cheap,large crowd each practice,qualifying and race day but did not take long.Sunshine until sunday.When we all got soaked.Loads of people left like ants in a line,when it was red flagged.I stayed wet on the outside so had a beer and hotdog for the inside.Didn't go all that way"4,500 miles" to walk out.Beer pots were half full of water,thats how much it rained,in a short time. Exciting race when restarted,cars were sliding off on the bend /chicane,across the grass in front of the stand.T v opposite too.Terrific buzz from people who stuck it out,Button last to first and win,watched it on the tv when I got home Tuesday.I was on my own but a fantastic week,sightseeing as well.A safe place,clean not much dearer than home.

This was my first ever Grand Prix and therefore had no expectations. Overall, I found it to be a brilliant experience and should I go back to this Grand Prix I would be more prepared for the weather, especially the rain!

It is easy to get to as the Montreal Metro is user friendly and the maps and directions are well signposted, you do not need to speak to French to understand where to go.

Only negative was that the orgainsers did not keep the spectators regualrly updated so we did not know if the race was cancelled or going ahead due to the rain.

If you like fast food and beer, there are plenty of stands, and if you want Formula 1 merchandise then you have many stands to buy from.

The toilets are ok (sort of) it's not as bad as Glastonbury!

I would definitiely go again.

Circuit is very clean and well planned out. Travel to and from circuit is very easy

The only hiccup was the ticket booth providing me with Silver seats on Friday vs. the Gold one I had purchased. The other attendee who had the exact same ticket accompanied me to the ticket counter and we straightened it out. The spelling of my first name was incorrectly spelled Haidi vs. Heidi on the Gold Tickets envelope waiting for me at the booth. It all turned out pleasant and made some new friends from London due to the mix up.

It would be great if Metro were included with tickets instead of buying separate passes.

Exciting race in the rain after a delay. Too many laps with the safety car but then well worth the wait. As usual book F1 came through with great seats and info that made our trip easy! I ordered fan vision/kangaroo but it did not work in grandstand 11. It is a very long walk to 11 so be prepared. If they say it will rain believe them and bring GOODrain clothesand shoes. We were drenched!

I thought the race was really good. Your service was excellent. I liked the tickets and had a real good time. The only thing that I didn't care for is access to other areas of the race track. It is not a spectator friendly place. With tickets in grandstand 15 we were not allowed in the general admission areas around the stands 11 and 12 areas. These are very cool areas to watch from. I hope Austin will be better than in Canada. Next year I would like to buy grandstand seats for Sunday for sure and maybe a different grandstand for Saturday and a general admission for Friday. Can I purchase these through you guys? Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining, I will go back again. Thank You

My seat, Section 2 range BB seat 16 did not have the track infront of it. The track was to the left by quite a distance. I had to sit twisted to watch the racing and the jumbotron. Because of this whenever the guy next to me raised his camera to take a photo it blocked my view. The stands are at the wrong angle so when I looked left the track disapeared into the crownd to my left. The whole stand should be twisted 5° or so. This would enable the the last three sections of the stands to see the cars coming out of the corner. Need to upgrade the FM radio system so that it can be used at every point on the track.

The weather is about the only thing you can't blame on the organizers and that was the only thing which could have been better, perhaps some slightly more upmarket food options would have been nice, too. But overall a fantastic GP!

Well done to the city and people of Montreal for going GP crazy the entire weekend, even the rain could not ruin this. I have been to 14 different grand prix and this is the best one without doubt (other than Silverstone of course) Loved it !!!! Will be back next year.

The circuit is one of the easiest to access from the city as Montreal has an excellent Metro system. We were back in our hotel 25 mins. after leaving the track. You are allowed to bring your own food and liquor into the grounds which
very few tracks allow. Didn't try any of the food there but the beer was approx.
$6.50 . We were happy with our seats which were right after the hairpin bend
and just before the straight.
I would highly recommend bookF1.com as the tickets arrived on time, nicely presented and the seats were great!

Overall a great experience. Tickets were in a great section with amazing views of the pit lane. The only drawback was the FanVision, it stopped working halfway through the race and the FanVision booth was located at the far end of the track, so we were unable to to get it fixed or a replacement.

The race was awsome, even though it rained for 2 hours the day of! We still had a blast in Canada. My advice is to use the 747 bus to get from the metro to downtown Montreal, and then use the metro to get from your hotel to the track everyday. Also, buy a rain poncho, earplugs, a awsome camera, great walking shoes, snacks, and beer before the race and bring them all in a backpack or cooler to save $$. We stayed at a crappy hotel, but it didn't really matter. Just be sure to book early to save money. And our Bronze 33 grandstand was a great view. We got to see Button pass Vetel in the final lap for the win, it was so exciting! I'd definately use bookf1 again.

Maybe the best F1 race of all time - definitely the longest.

A privilege being there despite the rain.

We had a great weekend, more information when the race was red flagged might have helped. Some kind of shelter or a boat might have been good.
In the end we returned to our hotel room to get dry clothes and saw the end of a very exiting race on T.V.
This did not spoil our weekend at all and we look forward to the Canadian Formula 1 Grand Prix in 2012.

Restrooms were plentiful, easy access. The only issue was getting to the actual track, people were confused about directions and a ten dollar cab fee to the track and back adds up. Overall a good experience.

In grandstand 12, turns 1 & 2, restricted view (to side). High up (row S, seats 29/30) - suffer from vertigo! Steps shallow and "bounce"-would like to see yellow paint on top edge for safety, also no hand rails at end of rows to hold onto on way up/down. Quite scary, so would like to be able to CHOOSE seats in future, not so high up. Next time would go for Stand 11, section 4 or 5 , say row A, better view.

Very long walk from Jean Drapeau Metro to stands 11/12 !

Can recommend Days Inn Hotel in Downtown Montreal - 3 day GP package, excellent breakfast, cheapish bistro- type bar/restaurant and free iced water and seat cushions to take each day.

Just wish weather had been better on race day - literally got soaked to the skin, but very exciting race... and WELL DONE Jenson!

Information received on-line was extremely useful. Link to Montreal Metro site allowed effective planning for journey in advance however the route was well signed. Helpful staff advised me to peurchase multiple day ticket which was very cheap. Access to/from the circuir was efficient even with masses of people leaving after the final race due to good event management. As you would expect everything purchsed at the circuit is at inflated price (to be expected with a captive audience). If you want to avoid this take your own provisions. Take water-proof equipment and seat pad for additional comfort. Binoculars are useful to read placings etc on large screens.
