Lewis Hamilton and I at the hotel before the race
2 more images

My daughter Jacki and I attended the 2008 F1 Grand Prix as guests of the Vodafone McLaren Mercedes team. Our short stay in the beautiful city of Barcelona saw us rubbing shoulders with the likes of Lewis Hamilton and got us behind the scenes to the "paddock" where the teams set up their headquarters for the event.
It is mind boggling to see the amount of behind the scenes work that goes into an event of this nature.

Equipment: Ear plugs ear plugs and more ear plugs. Its LOUD man!

2003 The year of great excitement
A Circuit which, thanks to its new grandstands and services, is one of the best in the world.
New advantages that make the assistance to the championship easier and more comfortable
And, above all, new drivers who, after the 2002 results, this year will have the chance to be confirmed as the new stars of the moto world. The excitement is guaranteed.
