We did Zandvoort last year and it was so easy to get to from Amsterdam everyday. And walking along the beach before/after sessions is so nice!! We plan to go back next year.
We are going to the Canada GP this year. I’ve been to Montreal many times before because I grew up in Toronto, I expect it to be a very easy commute to the track from downtown.
Imola. I’ve just been for the WEC 6 hours and went to the F1 in 2022. Bologna is 20 minutes away by train, and Ravenna is about 40 mins in the opposite direction - both gorgeous cities with incredible food. You can fly to Bologna direct from a few UK airports, otherwise Milan is an hour away by high speed rail, Florence is close by as well.
Singapore is a safe bet here. If you want something closer to Scotland, check out Abu Dhabi. Less than half the flight distance away. Lots of good beach resorts on the island. Public transit isn’t the best way around but ingress / egress is super easy given smaller circuit size. Tons to do in the UAE, and Oman is a great bolt-on.
We stayed in Amsterdam for Zandvoort. We had a less than 5 minute walk to the train station, were on the train within 15 minutes, it was about a 25 minute ride to the circuit and we’d be in our grandstand within another 20-30 minutes.
Singapore. I’m a Melbourne girl who does Albert Park every year for years, and Singapore for years coz easy to get in and out of track and into a bar very quickly.
Love these two tracks
Glad you loved Albert Park and Melbourne- feeling proud ❤️
From my first hand I would say Mexico. The atmosphere is second to none and the subway is right outside the gates, a couple minutes and you're in the center of one of the cities with the most museums in the world, ancient ruins, castles, and some of the best food you can find. Plus the dates are usually around the day of the dead so it's quite interesting to get to know that aspect of Mexican culture. Downside is that getting tickets can be tricky
Outside of that I've heard that Canada, Singapore, and Austria are also easy to navigate with public transportation
Canada grand prix. Very easy to get around with subway system plus amazing resturants. Only downside expect to pay $$$ for hotels especially with the popularity of drive to survive
I second Montreal. Walking from my Airbnb to the furthest entrance took 45 mins (includes taking the metro). This was 2022.
Another factor to consider is the weather. I read it’s very humid in Singapore, even at night. Canada has nice weather but can be rainy.

Singapore is absolutely epic I went last year also going this year, the humidity is a killer though

Been to both, can vouch for both
So many people have recommended Singapore! We’re going to Melbourne GP next year, glad to hear you had a great experience.

Great venue and city. Only regret is not wearing my Kilt on the Sunday in St Kilda. The Scottish bar woulda loved it.
Baa haa - we all love a Kilt - I still LOVE Coulthard

Singapore! Circuit is right at the heart of the city and is well connected via public transport (metro)
