Thank you again to op

As my daughter was on Crutches yesterday we got to park in the Hospitality car park , At 9am we walked in , again no one checked our tickets . My youngest Daughter got to drive a A class Merc as we was one of the first in.

Then we walked straight into the Mercedes building , Lewis walked straight past me and smiled as he was doing a interview in a room there , then Ross Brawn walked over , he shook our hands , signed my daughters book and we got a pic !! Also saw Hekki and a few others. So glad we got into the building as it was cold and my daughter could sit down , Food was nice too. We could also watch outside .

Fab day !!!!

Just to add to the thanks to the OP.

A great day was had by all and I managed to get autographs from all except Pedro De La Rosa as I was standing in the ever-present queue to get into the warm of the main building.

Shame we can't post pics. here as I have some great ones.

There was a queue at the front of the building which you had to join and was giving a wrist band , only a certain amount was allowed in at one time , when you left the building you had to give your band back then another person was allowed in .

thanks Op:beer: we had a great day, got busy as the day went on. shame there were no trains into any station anywhere near event as it was a sunday. but still had a great time and even went into the brooklyns museum. had a go in the simulated concorde plane and drove round some old track. saw all the engines etc. that was worth paying for:T
