Before the start of the race all the cars were parked on display along the main straight so the big-wig officials and dignitaries could have a gander at them. Our grandstand seats were front row and exceptionally good, but still not the same as walking around the cars on the track so I decided to wander down and take some close up pictures.
Security was pretty lax so it was no problem wandering through one of the garages, chatting to the drivers and then wandering out on the track to take some shots of the cars and girls. Beats me as to why anyone pays the ridiculous prices to get pitlane access. I wandered up and down for about 45 minutes in front of security taking photos, bossing people out of the way and organising space around the cars so I could get some clear shots.
Amazing what you can get away with when you are carrying a camera. A number of the professional photographers started to follow me around copying the pictures and angles I was taking. What a hoot!
If anyone wants to hire a photographer of cars or bikini clad women I am available.
