Sleeping outside (or sometimes inside) racetracks

Post by racingfiend33 on Fri Jun 27, 2008 7:37 pm

One of the great things about Formula 1 before the mid 80's was the lack of security. Nobody was worried about external threats, or rogue fans trying to harm a team or driver. My pals and I would sleep outside the circuit in sleeping bags, on the ground, wake up as the sun rose and ask if we could help the mechanics with their equipment. I remember being at Canada back about 30 years ago, helping the Lotus mechanics with the tires. I've also slept inside the Monza circuit in my tent. Amazing. Impossible to do today, but back when you could do it, it was one of the best trips one could make. They are some of the most memorable times of my life.
