This was a magnificent occasion and there was a great sense of glitz, glamour and gladiators! Those 'Roman' fellows were there getting their photos taken again and again and again. What is it about men in short skirts? Just as well there isn't a Scottish Grand Prix! The race itself was a high-speed blur, all I can say is that if you actually want to see the race and know what is happening, you are better off staying at home and watching it on telly. You can certainly hear and sense the power of the cars but if you wanted to know what exactly was happening you were reduced to race radio, large screen TVs or your smart phone. It was great, though.
Keeping with the Scottish theme, there was a concert afterwards by Simple Minds. There was a group of Scots beside us and none of us could remember any of their songs. We waited for about six songs and still had not recognised any, so went home.
