Anybody else going to Singapore the F1 race?
It won't be my first trip to Singapore, but it will be my first f1 race.
We're very excited, it seems like one of the best locations to enjoy what a city has to offer and a race. I'm going with my wife, our 4 year old son and my In-laws, everybody is into cars and food! We're staying at the Marina Bay Hotel, which will hopefully be a good location for getting to and from the race and exploring the city in our free time. Any recommendations of things to see and do during the race? Anyone else attending?

If you've never had Fish Head Curry at the Banana Leaf Apollo restaurant on Racecourse Road, I would highly recommend this. Insanely good and unforgettable.
You're staying at a sensational hotel. I haven't been there yet, but the roof top bar looks to be the business. Best views in town.

I was supposed to be there this week on business, but have found myself in Kuala Lumpur instead. Have fun!

Since this is the first F-1 event you're attending, make sure you don't forget ear protection for everyone!

Consider renting the FanVision (I think that's what they're called now) viewer for the weekend too, sector time/splits and different on-board camera feeds alone are worth the price
 Have fun!
