@louisbosco yup and it’ll still be cheaper than our CDMX single days were

@louisbosco said in Motor Sport:
was just looking at 2027 prices and swore it's gone up about $150 since 2 years ago
You can thank Brad Pitt, Netflix and Liberty Media for that. Also impacts the costs for hotels. There have been massive increases in accommodation costs for Silverstone.

I took my son to the Williams and Mercedes F1 team fan events in downtown Austin. We got to hold a tyre!

Well played @Danimal506
Enjoy the weekend. Austin would be my pick of the US races to visit if I had the opportunity.

@Bridger I have a friend who came to town with his wife for the race weekend. I’m just taking in the free activities this weekend. It’s really cool how much F1 has grown here. I’ll be watching from my couch. But I really want to take my son next year, he’s ready!
-
@Danimal506 That's cool you are close enough to take in some of the action. Good to get some of the vibe before enjoying the comfort of your couch.

@Bridger I used to drive by the track commuting to work every day. It’s wild how much it’s grown since my very first visit in 2017, before I even lived in Austin. I live maybe 20 minutes from the track if I take the toll road. About 45 minutes to downtown Austin where most of the events are this week.
A few years back for the holidays I got to drive a lap on the track. It was a blast! A bit scary in “slightly damp” conditions at night. But totally awesome!

@Bridger Yes! Always good music to be found.
