Anyone going to the Canadian GP this wknd?

Look out for me...I'll be the guy wearing the F1 gear.

Should be good times...Star Mazda is one of the support races so at least I get to hear rotaries while the car is parked at home.

Found a Renault-blue T-shirt...I have one day to find matching yellow shorts now.

Lucky you! I bet Indy will go out of their way in welcoming people back after last year.

I'll be in grandstand 12. This time tomorrow I will be in Montreal and the debauchery begins!

That's the general feeling. So far my tickets were free (Thankyou Michelin!) and they have organized a bunch of fan activities, pit walkthroughs and autograph sessions. Should be fun as ever!

Enjoy montreal, and on friday and saturday night go into the city and enjoy the town! There will be a lot of free concerts, parties, car shows and events. Pick up a Gazette when you get there and there should be some schedules in there.

Oh I will...this will be my 8th trip for the GP.

My search for yellow shorts has not been fruitful so far. :o

What a fantastic weekend. Managed to sprint down to the podium and catch the top 3 cars pulling in for the podium ceremony! This has been the closest I've gotten to the podium so far - can't really get any closer without having a special pass.

Haha, hardly.

Was a decent race, better after Kimi's mistake
The title is Alonso's again this year, unfortunately. That damm Renault is fast and uber-reliable, too.

I'm sure you guys enjoyed yourselves!!
