Macau Grand Prix 2012 澳門格蘭披治大賽車

I have been trying to go to see the car racing and take photos for a few years. But I was always late then too lazy to arrange.

But this year, one of my tea friends is involved in one of racing team, and I was promised the chance to go into the pit lanes to see how it works.

This is the thread for the photos, preparation trips, and hopefully some nice photos of the real racing.

chin:
I have never been to car racing before, and never took racing pictures. So I had no idea how to photograph car racing, where could be the best spot, etc... So today I went to Macau for a few hours trying to figure out where is where, and where is the best place to take pictures.

The first thing to be noticed is that the main roads are being barricaded. (In fact they were somewhat barricaded 2 weeks ago when we visited Macau.)

chin:
More pictures of barricaded roads.

First to check out the Grand Stand.

It's right outside the ferry terminal, and all entrance were guarded. However after walking toward 海立方 casino, I found an entrance to the reservoir, which is at the back of the Grand Stand. The entrance to the reservoir park was freely open. From there I went into the Grand Stand.

Once inside, no one, including many security guards, bothered me. Perhaps they thought I am a quality check person taking photos of the preparation. And I acted as I really belong there.

The following is the circuit diagram from the official web site.
