Singapore Grand Prix 09

Our second annual trip to Singapore to watch the F1 Grand Prix was just as good if not better than the first.  Last year we had good seats at the now infamous Turn 17, and this year decided to splurge and get seats at the Turn 1, 2, 3 complex.  With 3 support races the racing started around 3:30 each day and didn’t end until 11:00 PM each night.

We stayed with friends, had leisurely breakfasts, lunches and then headed to the track each day around 3PM to catch the excitement.  I hadn’t spent much time in Singapore in the last couple years, so it was nice to get out and see some of our old stomping grounds.
