Grand Prix motor racing has its roots in organised automobile racing that began in France as far back as 1894. It quickly evolved from a simple road race from one town to the next, to endurance tests for car and driver. Innovation and the drive of competition soon saw speeds exceeding 100 miles per hour (160 km/h), but because the races were held on open roads there were frequent accidents with the resulting fatalities to both drivers and spectators.
Grand Prix motor racing eventually evolved into formula racing, and Formula One can be seen as its direct descendant. Each event of the Formula One World Championships is still called a Grand Prix. Formula One is still referred to as Grand Prix racing.—–source: WIKIPEDIA-the free encyclopedia
Being able to watch the racing live was such a remarkable experience. Awesome —that is how would I describe my experience. Just hearing live the sounds of those extra powerful machine made me feel the excitement of the race. The field was well represented by those world favorites such as Sebastian Vettel, Red Bull teammate and Australian MArk Webber, Nico Rosberg, Lewis Hamilton and others. Aside from those breathtaking races, other noteworthy activities were prepared such as concerts at the Legends Lane Stage. Aside from the superb performance of those guests bands, other events took place such as industry and innovation Precint featuring the Education Expo.
There was also the V8 village wherein I was able to get up close to the V8 garages, team and facilities. Finally, I was mesmerized by the extra ordinary stunts by two motorcycle stuntmen. They were so superb in their tricks and the crowd was so well entertained especially by their somersaults attempts. I would also invite you to share whatever interesting experience you have on my blog.
