This year, we have a spot in Le Rascasse lounge for the day of qualifying. The cars will be driving around us, plus, they'll have TVs (and food and drinks). Also, we should be able to see the pit activity.

But I've never been to Monaco before; we'll be coming in from Nice, and I have a few questions for those who are in the know:
- According to the F1 schedule, FP3 will be at 12:30 pm, and qualifying will be at 4:00 pm. At what time do they close off access to the track from outside? When do I need to be there?
- Are there usually other events going on during qualifying day, such as other classes of races or vintage cars?

Any info would be helpful.
