Re the crowds bear in mind we are a country the size of Europe with a total population the size of a city like Shanghai. (c26.5 mill) of which only 5 million are even remotely local to Albert Park. 452,000 over the weekend through the gates is not to be sneezed at.
We love our motor racing as Alan52 said. Even if its a fair hike, a major roadtrip or a flight to get there.  |
Or a 750m hike for some
