Going to the F1 at Magny Cours is one of the best weekends on the calendar...2006 a group of us stayed at a camping ground 5 minutes from the circuit, we used their transport options to get to the track so we could could have a drink without the hassle of designated driver, usually me! Although I did suffer quite bad sunburn throughout the weekend, no one said it would be 38 degrees! we all had a fantastic time. Travelling to Magny Cours needs to be thought out because it really is in the middle of nowhere, the campsite we stayed at was owned by an english guy and was quite basic in it%26#39;s approach, ie a big square flat field toilets and showers but the attention to detail was good, a massive marquee was set up with hot food and COLD beer, at night there was bbq%26#39;s music etc and a great crowd no revellers and child friendly! It can be booked online in advance which I%26#39;d reccomend www.campingf1.com which is good because it%26#39;s quite hard to find accommodation there. The racing is possibly one of the best for spectators as they have high terrace stands and plenty of screens. They had a Pink Floyd concert on the friday and being my first outdoor concert I was impressed at the clarity and the size, I don%26#39;t know if they always have concerts because it was the centenary it may have been a special.
All in all a great weekend and maybe I will return in a few years for another bash!

Thanks LordShumee,
This was exactly the info i was looking for, I%26#39;m going next June for the last race @ Magny Cour, so if you want to return you better start making plans.
Go Lewis.
