If you wish to organise a Grand Prix trip of a lifetime it need not cost the earth
. There are packages available which offer flights hotels meals and of course race tickets.
Firstly we need to find a location that is not too far away. This way we will keep the location fairly close to the UK to keep travel costs down. Let me introduce you to the Monaco Grand Prix. Monaco is an amazing place for sightseeing and shopping not to mention eating out so if you are a girlfriend or wife doing the organising be sure to research your shopping.
The Monaco Grand Prix, or as the French would say the Grand Prix de Monaco, has been running since 1929 and is considered to be one of the most prestigious and exhilerating motor racing events in the world. It is not too costly to get to, and once there you can enjoy life in the tax haven playground of the rich and famous.
So for those that are not totally up to speed with the Grand Prix let me enlighten you a little about the Monaco Grand Prix.
The track itself is the known Circuit de Monaco. It runs through the streets of Monaco which boasts sharp bends and a tunnel. This makes is a dangerous track to race on and sees below average speeds during racing time. Cars have even ended up the harbour.
In the swinging sixties Mr Graham Hill won five times which gave him a new name of Mr Monaco. The driver who has won the race more times than any other contender is Brazilian Ayrton Senna. So now you show off with some of these facts.
Triple Formula One champion Piquet quoted that racing at Monaco was like trying to cycle around your living room and also that a win here was worth two anywhere else.
The tunnel adds to the demands of the course due to rapid change from bright light to darkness. The race course needs to be built and dismantled which takes six weeks.
Monaco is a tax haven and playground to the rich and famous including past and present Formula One drivers. This race has been run under the patronage of three generations of Monacos royal family who have always taken a keen interest in the race.
It is claimed that the best place to view the Grand Prix is from the Casino Square, and better still at the Cafe de Paris. Seating at this location is usually higher due to the excellent vantage points, and the famous location.
During the Grand Prix season Monte Carlo will be a very busy sea side resort. The harbour will be busy with visitors, the hotels are usually fully booked, the chair lifts will not be running so everyone walks.
The weekend of the race usually coincides with the reknowned Monaco Festival of Arts. You will find street entertainers and a wonderful buzzing atmosphere. There are lots of hills, as the town is located on a cliff top. One of the reasons that the circuit is so demanding is the many steep elevations.
Monaco offers fabulous dining in terms of number of high class restaurants. In fact there are around 130 restaurants within the centre. Prices seem to increase the closer you get to infamous and elite Casino Square.
If you wish to plan that Grand Prix trip then here are some tips. Book well in advance first of all. Hotels and restaurants gets booked up in advance of the race.
Decide on how long you are going for. This might sound obvious but there is not much difference in package prices from going for 3 nights to making it a 5 night trip.
The length of stay also dictates which races you are able to watch. There is a practise race on the Thursday, a qualifying race on the Saturday and the grand race final on the Sunday.
Decide on which seats you want. Are you happy to settle for cheap and cheerful bucket seats or would you rather enjoy a luxurious VIP luncheon at one of the best vantage points in Monaco.
Its so much easier to book a hospitality package that includes flights. You will just need to check which airports you can fly from.
Finally enjoy the trip.
