I used to go to the Dutch, Belgian and German F1 GP's in the past quite often. First to the race only, but later on, we usually went to see the training sessions and watched the race at home on TV.

We did this for a few reasons. You can follow the race better on TV. When your favorite crashes out or has a technical failure, you don't see him no more. And later on the admission prices where shy high. For example at Franchorchamps in the late 90-ties, one easily paid about € 125.00 to stand in the mud and see the cars only 44 laps.
Training sessions are much easier to follow also and there is less crowd, so smaller traffic jams too.

But I would love to see the Singapore night GP.
