F2 qualifying and F1 practice

Brad took a look at the schedule and decided that we would go to the F2 qualifying and the second F1 practice meaning we had part of the day at leisure. That served us well. We had a relaxed breakfast and then inquired at the front desk about getting some laundry done. The hotel does not do laundry, but they directed us to a nearby laundry service where we were able to drop off our items. They’ll be ready tomorrow night.

We discovered that the Hopp/Bolt ride share is incredibly inexpensive here and that we could grab a ride from our hotel down to a mall next to the track for about four dollars Canadian, saving us a 50 minute walk. We did that last night and did it again today. Brilliant.

We watched the qualifying and time trials. Brad has been to an F1 before in Montreal but I have not and the speed, the noise and the smell of fuel are quite something! We use ear plugs and we were somewhat surprised how few of the spectators did.

Once those events were over, we had time to grab a bite to eat before our F1 Experiences event. We had been told it would be drinks and canapés but when we walked in, we were in awe. It was quite the spread. We were then treated to a Q&A with a number of F1 notables. Very entertaining.

We had to planned to go to one of the entertainment events that were part of our package featuring an internationally acclaimed DJ named Anyma tonight, but discovered it was about three kilometres from the track and opted out.Okumaya devam et
