Want to go to an F1 race or any other?

Then it's worth considering taking your own grub and drink to save a pile of cash also avoiding the queues to the 'greasy spoon food'. Having plenty of your favourite sarnies and drink in cool bags with light fold away seats in a nice spot is always a good idea.

I went to the F1 in Monaco several years ago. I was so excited. The city is incredible but watching the F1 live stinks. You see them for a split second blip. I much prefer watching it on TV. The sounds are amazing and it was kool to be there but not great for watching.

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.
