My first live F1 experience was a nice one i must say..
Slept 4 in the morning woke up at 10am get ready then walk to KTM then take the train to KL Sentral...
For once the bus company is doing big business...it freaking long the queue...
Its so pack and everyone scare they couldn't get there in time so we squeeze i standing next to the bus drive..
This is the reason why other bus couldn't go to sepang...u nid a license to do so...
First view of Sepang F1 Circuit
After the shuttle bus drop me at my(near my gate) it a long walk to my gate..
reach the top of the hill thought i found my gate..but then i look at my ticket it says C2b...so walk further up..
Finally found my gate C2b...when i go in the stupid guy ask me to throw away the water i bring...What a scam to earn money...
The surrounding view was breathtaking..can see plane taking off and landing..KLIA is in the background..
Thats the grandstand...which cost 500 to 19++...the one u can see here is the 500 and behind is facing the pitlane and start/finish line is the very expensive ticket is...
My place was covered..but no seat...some sort like picnic style..
ppl start coming in...
See the blue thing in the middle thts the so call big screen..which is anything but big from where i am..
remember the vintage car i saw last week..it was for today parade lap..(where f1 drivers sits on the car and wave to the audience
More...
And even more...
More...it was blur coz i full zoom it...
this is the f1 cars doing last minute testing before the race..
This is a Honda doing some testing..
look everyone is standing up for the national anthem...
even on my left...something u don see often i Malaysia...
This is the second lap..its freaking hard to take a decent picture with my n70 coz...the zoom sux and the delay means i have to snap 3 sec earlier..which is hard consider the cars are moving at a speed of well above 100Kph
The end of the race...the victory lap some call it..
ok after the race...i saw the jam and ppl queuing up for the bus so i said to myself i walk...which i did...which is sooooo far under the hot sun...but i finally reach the main entrance..
Finally reach the main entrance/welcome area...
This is how Sepang Circuit look like..
I walk there then i saw the merchandise shop..then i saw a familiar face its Euvern...he was busy so i walk around looking for the museum
Air con can be so smoothing especially when u are under the hot sun for like 20 min...stayed there look around and take picture of some old/vintage car on display..
Another one..was too busy enjoying the air con and trying to get out of ppl way so got no time to look at the spec and stuff...
wow this car is old.......
This is the jaguar 1954
The Official Event Merchandise shop for the BMW Sauber f1 team..
Nest to it is the Ferrari...
Walk further then i found....pretty much same thing only here there are 2 BMW car on showcase..a 5 and a 3 Series...
looking at this makes u wan it so badly...
If i am rich i have one of those for myself...SL 65 AMG (thats 6.5 litres for u)...
Jus look at this baby...
And this is my type of family car..
CLS 55 AMG IWC.....a limited edition..
Drool at it..
Some Ferrari fans...there are lots of Ferrari fans here...almost everyone is wearing red..
Nice car must go with nice models...Denso girls...
More Denso girls...damn malu to ask them for a picture using my puny n70 when ppl beside me using big giant SLR...
Marlboro girls...hehe...
Actually there are more chio/hot girls those selling the merchandise...but haha doesnt sound right to ask them for a picture...anyway they are busy selling the merchandise also..haven't seen so many pretty girls all in 1 place since i came back from Singapore...
Nice car + hot chick = prefect life....
And look at this OVERPRICED drinks.....5 bucks... can get like a dozen in supermarket..
In the end was suppose to just say bye to Euvern till he ask anything i want..
i was like 0_0... yeah the Mclaren Shirt... then he say he can get 30% off...i said ok..he said try to get his number he will pass to me...then i pass him the money...and all the stuff sold there are freaking expensive 150 and above....killer man..but i like it so...crap i nid to find a work soon i am so broke...
After all that time to bit farewell to
waited like 40 min for the bus...
and the jam is a killer...reach Kl Sentral 1+hr later...
Got on KTM reach Subang arond 8.45...had my dinner then here i am blogging...
Overall it was a good experience the sound of the F1 car....its well worth it..but after a while it get repeatative much due to i donno the standing..the screen was too small...and the commentary was covered by the sound of car zooming by...haha i din even knoe it was the last lap...also there wasn't any drama...no car overtaking one another, no accident, no blow ups...but it was well worth it to hear the roaring sound of the F1 engine...
here are 2 short clips i took...
This is the warm up lap
This is the first lap...
