What's the best day to go to the FOS? - Obviously friday is the cheaper, but is it also less good?

It will be our first FOS.

Cheers,
A.

The Friday is a lot busier than you'd believe, partly because of the free tickets given away by certain newspapers. Saturday is a good day to come if you want to take pics and get close to some fabulous drivers and cars without too much of a scrum. Sunday is the busiest day and the day when you see the top F1 / rally drivers putting in an appearance. So to cut a long story short the best day to go is always the Sunday for my money ( although I personaly always do all three days )woohoo

I've been going on a Friday for free and then also on a Sunday.
Over the last 10 years I've managed to go on everyday and reckon also that Sunday is the best for action. (and crowds)

Friday used to be the best day for taking your time, great for photography. It also used to cost £10 on a Friday on the gate!
However like previously mentioned it gets quite full.

Friday is still probably the quietest (But not by much) but not all the cars go up the hill on friday, Sunday is probably the best day for action as most of the big f1 drivers come for sunday. I go for all three day's but really any of the three day's is worth the money.
Hope this helps.

Personally I prefer Friday - it's the day all the testing is done so you see 'warts and all'...
