The KL City Grand Prix had many Kuala Lumpurians who worked in the golden triangle grousing about the road blocks and traffic congestion. I guess the mood would have been better if we had efficient public transportation services. Whilst I sympathised with those who were affected, I was also secretly pleased that the race was this close to home. Haha.
We braved the LRT (Light Rain Transit) to get into the city. Sunday afternoon proved no different than other days. I had expected it to be less crowded. Packed in like sardines, I had one hand on the rail handle and the other on my bag - my eyes keeping a sharp lookout for pickpockets.
We got off at KLCC and walked out to find a good spot to watch the race. After half an hour of surveying, we settled under a bridge outside Wisma Cosway where it was shady. We, as in hubs and I.
Here is a short video of the race where the cars slowed to turn the corner.
Grandstand tickets are priced at RM350 for three days - steep!

Haha... I feel you! So glad I don't work in that area anymore. ;)
DeleteI have never been to a Grand Prix, only watch it on TV. I don't know whether I can stand the loud vroooom vroooom of the racing car. Looks like it is the loud vrooom vrooom that makes the event so exciting, the adrenaline rush!
ReplyDeleteI didn't think I could stand it too, Nancy. Aah..what can I say, "don't try, don't know" - that was how it happened for me. One try, and now I'm hooked! ^.^
Deletewee....I like to watch the car racing too
ReplyDeletemany people complaining about the car racing in kl city centre
which causes them to take a day off or having difficulty to reach office
I do have other view on it
it is much easier to attract local and tourists to the event
then driving or taking taxi to sepang that far
Agree, it was only a 5-minute drive away for me. Convenient! :D
DeleteWow, the Grand Prix! I've never seen one in real life! Must be exciting! Spent the weekend having extended family over. It was a lot of hard work but fun as well. Gifts that came my way were dried fruits and a cousin from New York got me a grill turner as well as a lasagna turner!:-)))
ReplyDeleteAwww...what a lovely weekend yours was! Nothing beats family time together. ^.^
