iris123 Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 Go to Prague.The racing might not be too good,but the beer is great and you can also buy nice cheap trainers there....ask f-s-p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f-s-p Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 Go to Prague.The racing might not be too good,but the beer is great and you can also buy nice cheap trainers there....ask f-s-p Copenhagen is is too expensive, Stockholm is new with a one off and the stadium is not exactly central. Not sure though, I've driven past it but I do get lost in Stockholm pretty fast. So that leaves Prague. Good beer, I would avoid the taxis and pay more for a hotel. If I go next year, it'll be Bitkos or Gorzow and with a lottery win I will also go to Krsko. Ohh, didn't exactly go straight from A to B in Prague either...

There are bus and commuter trains going to Solna Station thought but it still will requires a 10-15min walk from Solna station to the arena. Possible there will be extra buses going all the way to the arena during the GP but it don't think it is anything that have been decided about yet.

The airport bus from Arlanda stops quite close by as well I believe (Hotel Jarva Krog) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
full-throttle Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 If your going just for the speedway then Bydgosz normally delivers. If you want to sight see whilst there and have cheap food and drink then Prague is the answer. You can get from central Prague to the airport for about £3 by using public transport, Buses and trams run at regular intervals during the day so no problem getting around the city. Copenhagen is a train ride away from the airport, but beer is more expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting map as it is the only one I've seen with a road crossing the railway line between the E18 (to the North) and Solna Train Station (to the South). I guess this must be a new road that hasn't found it's way onto many maps as yet but it may influence which Hotel I stay in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 I have been going to Cardiff for a few years but really want to go to a differant GP next year but cant make my mind up. So which one should i go to. The choice i have are PRAGUE COPENHAGEN STOCKHOLM Poland - cheapest flights and beer.Prague and Stockholm - nicest cities. Prague - beer still cheap if you avoid the tourist bits. Copenhagen - very expensive. Depends what you want in addition to the speedway! We love Prague and Stockholm but obviously haven't been to the new stadium yet. Been to Copenhagen twice but prefer the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topaz325 Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Of the places mentioned i have only been to Copenhagen but not for the Speedway, the Beer is good quality and expensive ( Carls Special ) cake and coffee for two £27.00, which is nice.Lovely city though.

iris123 Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Think Phil is talking about the town.The track i guess we will be told will be much improved next season.Even BSI/IMG can't do much about the surrounding area lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humphrey Appleby Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 DON'T bother... hasn't much going for it I'm guessing Terenzano is out of the series in 2014 then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PHILIPRISING Posted December 30, 2012 Report Share Posted December 30, 2012 THE motorsports division at IMG, under Global Head of Motorsports Rob Armstrong , the man who brokered the speedway deal with former BSI chief John Postlethwaite, is growing. The rallycross TV coverage is likely to come under the umbrella of Artifaxmedia who also direct the SGP television operations and there will be a considerable synergy between the two at IMG.
