- NOTE
It was a nightmare.
I went to Shizuoka last week, by my business trip. There was "Fuji Speedway" circuit close to the place I went (about 1 hour). At that time, fortunately the Japanese Grand Prix of the Formula One had been holding at the circuit.
On the second day of the business trip, I could take a time, so decided to try to watch the race.
I didn't have any tickets though, but I guessed it was possible to get the ticket at the entrance or from someone there.
First, that guessing was the trigger of the nightmare, but I didn't know that still right that time...
I took trains and a taxi to the circuit.
Just after arriving there, I totally regretted.
It was unbelievably COLD! I was the only one person who was wearing only T-Shirts at the place. And I guessed that there are some shops or restaurants of course, but nothing I could find. Nothing but the big busses and people at all. I was so fxxxin' starving and pouched!!
Yeah, you know that I couldn't get any tickets, food and drink. But, at last, I found a place there I could peep the race.
I shoot the photo from there.
But it was a deep deep foggy day, so I could see only the tail lamp of those machines...
Can you believe that? Well, I couldn't. :-(
And then, after I went back to home with lost heart, those busses were stopped by some accidents (sinking road), I heard. By that accidents, many many persons had to wait for about 5 hours in the cold rain.
In the end, it was the worst race in the long Formula One history I've ever seen...
Hey Toyota! Gimmi back the precious day off for me!
