    No probs, I was lucky to get down early and have plenty of room for taking the pics.

    I was also surprised how narrow the rear wing was! My first ever time seeing an F1 car in the flesh, roll on tonight!!

    Amazing the braking power these things have for all the size of the discs. Stood toe to tyre with a Ferrari F1 car at Goodwood, you could stare at the things for ages there's so many wee details.

    Yeah I saw Fernando Alonso's Renault in Paris last year and literally spent half an hour looking at it. As you say so many intricate details to look at.

    Don't think I will get down in today :(

    Is it worth going to City Hall for the static display? Took a drive past this morn at 12 ish and there were big-ish crowds, but couldn't see much

    I was down this afternoon a walk! Passed the display on the footpath then saw the queue so didnt bother waiting! Really wasnt impressed with the display at all! Just the car with the covers off and half a dozen blokes standing round with their arms folded! Looking forward to tonight tho! Got the camcorder ready to go!

    Good point! But it would probably be more fun to be there than not....
    P.S. Funny no mention of our local F1 driver anywhere?

    I thought it was a bit of a let down really. The sound was unbelieveable but they could have used the complete square around the City Hall to allow people to get a better view so they wouldn't have to be 4-5 people deep.
