There's a pretty good set of maps in the officials booklet linked above - one showing flag points (page 3) and the other incident posts/coverage (page 8).

FIA lights for me this year, so don't yet know whereabouts I will be on circuit yet, which is a bit of a bummer.

For those who are seasoned veterans of the GP marshaling,
Roughly how big are the camping plots ? just deciding on weather its worth taking a gazebo etc and our current tent is quite big 6 man about 7 meters long Also whats it like marshaling at Village..? it looks good and i hear its the first true braking point Cheers guys, Richard |

Campsite pitches are usually about 8 x 8 or similar - I doubt you'll get your tent and the gazebo on one pitch unless your neighbours aren't using their spot.
If you're taking a gazebo bear in mind that the camping field is very exposed and is often very windy - flying gazebos are quite common and if your gazebo damages someone else's tent/car/caravan/camper etc you will be VERY unpopular. You need to make sure that you can bolt it down so that it doesn't move if you're not there all day. |

we had a gazebo last year, even tho we had it secured down on all 4 corners, it bent one of the extension bars on the inside. all depends on how much you paid for it and is it worth the risk, you might be lucky and have no wind, but i doubt it |

It is the first breaking point (when the newer start line is used) so is a great post. Also, you get the cars driving all the way around the post as they tackle the Loop so very noisy & potentially very busy!

It would seem that emails have gone out from IMS to the marshals doing the Thursday systems checks.
