Default Indian Grand Prix...where to sit?

So by coincidence I'll be in India during the Gran Prix.

I don't want to pay the $800+, but rather prob the $200 ish range. Where would you say would be the best seats?

BTW...this site seems cheaper than some of the others...

Normally, that is the place I watch from. But not every day you get the chance to attend an F1 debut at a country level.

So, thoughts?

That Star Stand 1 East looks like a good spot to see passing going into turn 4, though Stand 3 might be great if you can see all the way across to the braking area. The Premium Stand South nearer to turn 11 also looks like an interesting place to watch from. Hard to judge what the sight lines will be, but unless there are a lot of trees, you should get some long views. Just MHO.

In the shade somewhere, it's still going to be very hot at that time of the year.

Maybe T1 for the beginning of the race, as that always seems to see the most action in F1.
