We booked a room back in April and got a room downtown for less than $200/night. A friend who is coming had his AirBnb cancel last week on him and he had to book a hotel north of town to find anything. All in with hotel for 4 nights(Thursday-Monday), 2 tickets in turn 12, and a parking pass(split cost with friends flying in) we're around $1800ish. We made a couple dinner reservations at some nice places so I'm figuring with all that we'll be around $2500 or so for the trip.
We aren't going Friday, we are going to do some stuff around Austin that day. Is it worth even trying to sell my Friday tickets & parking pass? Seems like that's the least popular day.
ETA: Don't tell my wife how much this trip is costing

I have prior commitments to attend a 50th year anniversary LSU Rugby reunion this weekend in Baton Rouge, otherwise I’d be heading to Austin. I definitely plan on making it for next year. I haven’t attended a race before.
Intrigued by Miami 2022 event but surely that will be crazy expensive.

Hoping maybe the larger city offers more lodging options that will keep the prices down some.

For the Saudi races...
Will be interesting if the championship is decided there.
Also looks like Yuki may have to miss this one.

Strict Rules
Racing in the Middle East comes with several strict rules that the personnel of the Formula 1 teams and authorities involved have to follow. First of all, there is the dress code. Arms and legs have to be covered at all times
quote:
The staff will therefore have to wear long trousers and shirts up to the elbows during the race weekend.
Moreover, transparent materials are not allowed. For women, the shoulders and legs above the knee may not be visible. Women are also advised to wear as little make-up as possible.
In addition to the applicable dress code, there are other rules that must be met. It is advised not to show affection in public or use profane language. These rules apply to everyone who travels to Saudi Arabia, not just F1 personnel.

Guess we are going to see the virtue signalers bow down...
Would be great to see Seb show up and then give them a big F U

Is COTA cashless?
We have 2 families going - parents each with a 19 y/o. We have an AirBnB about 35 miles away, but at least we have an SUV and a parking pass. Looking forward to it!

If Sebastian wants to be a moral bore, he should quit driving, and go on a world tour with Greta Thunberg.

I’d assume he wants to leave the country when the race is over so I’d imagine this would be a no.

Do they allow track walks at any point this weekend?

Going to COTA for my bachelor party, leave on Thursday. Can’t wait. Second time I’ve been.

Shaq/DJ Diesel is playing a set after the race Sunday. So I guess I know what I’m doing while traffic clears out

I will say, after the race on Sunday the security is sort of non-existent if you wait a little bit.

That's the dumbest shite ever.

They have bicycle nights there through the year. I'd love to have the chance to make one.

Why would Yuki have to miss a race?

The ban on foul language in public.
Posted on 10/20/21 at 9:16 am to fightin tigers
The mental gymnastics people go over to say this is ok is mind boggling.
I literally heard someone say “well, yeah, the Mid East ain’t great but we just got another race in the US which is the evilest country of the 21st century by far and completely under serving of any F1 races.”

Miami presale info is hard to find, but someone shared an email that says they will only be offering 3 Day reserved seating, 700-2000 is the price range.
Decision on GA tickets will be made after the first of the year.
