    Get the GA ticket for 140 quid and it's the best one to go for. On Friday and Saturday you'll be given access to a couple of the grandstands (there's no security at them) and the main grandstand is always available for the GP2 and GP3 races in my experience.

    Getting to the track is easy from the city. The local train station is Montmelo and it's about 40 minutes from the city centre. The train station in Montmelo is about a 25 minute walk to the track.

    Barcelona is a really good race to go to, I was there the last two years

    If you intend to get a stand ticket I would advise getting a ticket for the stand at the end of the main straight as high up the stand as possible. From here you get to see the cars doing over 50% of the lap I would say. At the start of the race when they all come down and brake together here its a real sight to behold. I would say of all the GPs Ive gone to its given me the best views. It may not be the best track in the world but it has great viewing opportunities.
