Montreal F1 in June, who else is going?

I ran into a guy at the F club Candy Store dinner this weekend, and it turns out we are on the same plane. Who else is going to this Formula 1 race? Tickets and hotels are going fast, and with the disappearance of the US event the Canadians are expecting 250K visitors. Hard to believe, but it should be a fun party.

I am using United miles, so I might have to miss practice on Friday. Flying out on Air Canada from SFO, non stop on the morning of June 6, flying back on June 10. The race is on Sunday, June 8. I will be staying at the Sheraton Centre-Ville. I was going to stay further out, next to a metro stop, but I swallowed hard and sprang for the closer digs downtown. I also used my SPG hotel points, for the first two $400 nights ! The last night is $140, so you know they are gouging.

I have not gotten race tickets but the guy I am going with from work things Silver 11 is a good value. Any opinions or others going to the race?

You have not been introduced to the right Polish women. I recommend the waitresses at Old Cracow in San Francisco. A couple of years ago they raided a beauty pageant.
I am going with two guys from work and expect to join Johannes (proprietor of Dino Motors in San Mateo) for some of the social programme...
