Transcript

When I tell you we could not have had a more perfect first day at the F1 if we tried. When we sat in our seats, we had legit tears as the cars drew past. I actually cannot believe we are here. It's been such a long time coming and definitely could not be more excited. We spent the entire day seeing as much as we could. There was so much to see and do. We actually didn't even see everything today. Amex had the most insane setup with massage chairs and makeup touch-ups. And then we headed to the Brabham stand to watch the V8 Supercar race. Porsche also had a super cool experience where you could sit in different models of cars that they had on display. There were also free photo booths, KitKat break areas, you could pick up your race radios, and after 25,000 steps, we called it a day and headed to Lucia for their trackside burger and beer special. It was actually only $30 and I couldn't recommend enough. It was such a beautiful restaurant and only 10 minutes from the track.
