awesome weekend

Zone 4 Walkabout
By martin, 06 Oct 2010
i would have rated it all at 5 stars as it was an awesome experience (my first GP), however due to extremely high prices for pretty much everything - i'd give it 4 stars overall.

Turn 2 view

Turn 2
By Jon, 05 Oct 2010
Great F1 weekend. There is more to do here than the Monaco GP and the night atmosphere makes it extra special. Our ticket gave us access to all the zones so we could see the live bands of our choice and get a free ride on the Singapore Flyer.

Singapore GP review

Pit
By Jim Maitland, 04 Oct 2010
Well organised by the Singapore officials - plenty of knowledgable stewards to guide you as required. Access to main entertainment events (Mariah Carey / Missy Elliott) was difficult for those in Zone 1 as you had to attend the venue in advance in order to receive a wristband to allow entry at concert time. This meant walking from one end of the circuit to the other to get a band, then back again to attend the concert - not proactical in my view for the majority in Zones 1 and 2.

Decking laid over gravel behind the pit straight grandstand in an effort to provide dry underfoot conditions didn't work too well - residual water under the decking tiles squirted up through the air holes when you walked on them - this ruined the clothes of many, leaving orange streaks on legs and clothing. it was better on Sunday when it hadn't rained for 18 hours.

Ticket prices in the UK are exorbitent vs what they could have been purchased for in Singapore!
Otherwise a fantastic event!

Excellent ciruit and facilities


By Karen Bowers, 02 Oct 2010
Really enjoyed the Racing. The only comment I have is that you could not go to all areas of the circuit. The entertainment where we were was limited and although it was good the bike stunts were the same each time they came to the stage.

Not as good as 2008!

Bay
By Carlos Fandango, 30 Sep 2010
Having experienced the very first night race in Singapore, both myself and my uncle were very excited to return again this year. The F1 didn't disappoint in terms of action throughout the race (Webber taking out Hamilton was a bitter pill to swallow), however the entertainment for the marina bay grandstand left a lot to be desired! Watching 6 freestyle trials bike shows where they did the same thing everytime, meant that the grandstand would empty very quickly as most people watching simply couldn't stomach watching such an awful event. I will never get that time back!

Further to this our frustrations at the lack of access to areas which were previously allowed in 2008, due to over zealous marshalling and ticket checking. We never gained access to the track after the race like we did in 08. We did however get to walk most of the track on the Wednesday night whilst the track was still undergoing maintenance to catch Schumacher riding the track on a scooter, Glock running the track, along with many of the Renault and Redbull mechanics. So arrive early!!

Getting into and leaving the track was quite probably the most annoying experience of the whole weekend. The ticketing system was checked electronically, which crashed on the Friday at opening time, therefore the people that que'd were left to wait longer as no back up plan had been put in place for such a scenario. 10 mins later they reverted to manual checking of tickets.

Further to this your ticket was scanned when exiting the circuit. This coupled with the ridiculous methods of channeling people into congested areas, to the point of hurding cattle, meant 20,000 plus people had a very long wait to exit the track after qualifying and the race. There was very little co-ordination between marshalls, ushers and or the police, which is most unlike the usual organised Singapore custom.

We are likely to return next year, as the whole Singapore experience is so worth it, however they must think long and hard about how this years weekend was managed from start to finish and the entertainment that is on offer for the spectators.

Getting to the track

Formula One Paddock Clubâ„¢
By Ian Thomson, 30 Sep 2010
I found the information and map to get to the track very scant in detail. I tried every route combination and all were very, very poor. Once I got to the track I then had difficulty finding a route to the Paddock Club. Most annoying of all was the huge numbers of uniformed personnel who just stood around talking to each other rather than assist visitors.
I also found it annoying to go through 2 sets of security gates.
The "pit walk" was not as expected and the staff were very rude with their persistant demands that people kept moving, I was walking, yet I was told to move faster or "they" were going to be fined $1,000,000.
It was totally impossible to visit the other non race venues.
Very poor experience and I will not be back to a Singapore GP.

Singapore F1

Turn 1
By Leon, 29 Sep 2010
Excellent Track and facilities. Viewing at night was excellent. However, i would recommend Turn 2 instead of Turn 1 due to the cars on the wrong side of the track and the barriers covering the viewing pleasure.
Book F1 thanks again as always.

2010 Singapore GP

Connaught
By Steven S, 29 Sep 2010
The race was excellent and as I haven't been at a GP live since Silverstone in 2000, this time I decided to go for a grandstand to get a bit closer to the action. We were in the Connaught grandstand, and the view was good, the only thing that wasn't so great was the mesh fence at the trackside obscured it a little. The corner there (Turn 14) was incredible hearing the gearchanges from the cars and we saw Massa go off, and Kubica overtaking 2 laps in a row. All in all a great experience. Access to the track was brilliant as it is moving around the city by underground.
The 2 biggest let downs for me were Missy Elliot and Mariah Carey!!!

Brilliant venue

Zone 4 Walkabout
By Tom and Sally, 29 Sep 2010
This would have to have been the best organised event I have been to anywhere in the world! Easy to get to and plenty of shuttles to the MRT's after the races. Efficient and pleasant staff and exellent security. To those complaining about the price of beer, how LOVELY it was to attend an event without drunks! The entertainment was great too.

Seating

Turn 3 Premier
By Russell Whelan, 29 Sep 2010
Although I did have a great time, as did my friend, the seats were not exactly where I requested.

Let me first say that we could see the race very well. We had a great time and I would book my tickets with you again without hesitation. However, as I wanted seats on Turn 3 as close to the Turn 2 stands as possible and as high in elevation as possible, meaning right under the 'Sky Seating', we were down a few rows and room was very cramped. My friend Nate is 6'6" and there was leg room enough for someone 5'8"-ish. He sat in seat 1 so his legs could extend slightly past the seat in front of him on the left hand side in the isle. Our seats were, A1, Row 15, Seat 1-2.

I wanted the upper most seats so we would actually have no one in front of us. There were about 5 more rows above us, & the highest row extended to the end of the stands. The isle went right up to the last row, and the few lucky ones who were sitting there with leg room and a slightly better view...

The track is like a carnival- lots to do even if you never saw a car once! Naturally, we came to watch a race but got a show instead! Fabulous, really good view and great facilities.

BOOKF1.com did a great job

Padang
By BSCHARP, 28 Sep 2010
BookF1.com's services was great. We got very time a prompt reply, if we had a question. Thank you again!!!!!!!!!!
The Grand Prix in Singapore was increadable. Between the different races (BMW, Porsche and Formular I) were some shows - of Adam Lambert, Mariah Carey, Sean Kingston, Missy Elliot and something else. Around the area Padang were a lot of different foods and beverages. The services during the Grand prix was also fantastic. Hotel rooms should be booked very early! We can recommanded SINGAPORE Formular 1 Grand Prix.

Summary

Padang
By jon gaunt, 28 Sep 2010
Overall excellent, the level of organisation was amazing. Will definitely return next year.

Down point was Mariah Carey whom I considered fairly pathetic. Looks like she needs to retire!

Connaught
By Roger Haynaly, 28 Sep 2010
one ticket was not scannable by the scanner at the entrance. They took us to the back side, checked again and then hole punched it and gave us manual access which was kind of embarassing.

Well run, professional

Turn 1
By Carlos, 28 Sep 2010
Extremely well run event. Entertainment however was lame, after a high octane event, really Mariah Carey ? As good as she is, a more charged entertainer would suit. Entertainment could be much better matched to the high adrenalin of grand prix, really opera divas?
