Depends on what you're searching for:
1) Pure racing: Silverstone 2) On track fan experience: Monza 3) Surroundings: Monaco |

Spa. Fantastic corners, you'll really get to see a GP work there. I love the track, it is great even when thee are no cars on track. The place is excellent too, wander around the old track. The mist in the morning really sets the mood too.
If traveling from Australia what about Japan? I bet that would be fun and it is a great track. Or Indy? The ticket prices are cheaper than Europe anyway, but at the moment with the US$ also being cheap it could offer real value. And there is the pit walk-about, which doesn't happen anywhere else (I think). |

Japan would be the best choice coming from Australia IMO.
Great track with usually a great atmosphere in the crowd, the facilities seem good too but i'm not sure about that. But for the experience i would go for Spa, as Double A said it looks great even if there are no cars on it. But that's probably because i'm biased. Last edited by ASCII Man; 24 Feb 2004 at 10:48. |

Suzuka if you can afford it.. ticket prices are known to be very high for the Jap GP.
US GP sounds like it could be a good one with the pit walk, but the track doesnt offer much. Monza for tradition and color, Spa for what f1 is all about. Silverstone if you want to get your hire car bogged in the car park. -jason |
