Have you ever watched world car racing live? Me, not in my
mind ever in my whole life, but suddenly my friend asked me to watch. Whaaat?
Don’t worry, in overseas but not too far, so no need to have much budget to go
there.
Okay, then we go to Sepang, close to Kuala Lumpur Malaysia.
My first experience and I was very happy.
Noticed that Sepang would be the last city that exhibit the
car race, then Malaysia would be the last country which held this world car
race in 2017, after some years.
Went by AA on Saturday morning, arrived KLIA2, and had to
face very long queue in immigration, perhaps of Saturday, it was weekend or
perhaps of the world event? No idea. Never mind, we didn’t go in hurry to reach
the venue. We have just needed to see the final on Sunday.
After finishing immigration process, took some photos around
airport, then going out by express train to KL Central then putting suitcase at
My hotel close there, then back to KL Central again to change the race ticket,
then we went to Petronas tower-Suria KLCC to see car racing exhibition, the
monumental twin towers and off course taking some photos again.
Sunday morning at eight o’clock, we were rush to KL Central
to take express train to Sepang. So many visitors there, mostly were people
around the world, fanatic fans of racer, from Dutch, Germany, Japan, England
was familiar to be seen. Malaysia prepared special express train just for
carrying visitor of race. I said special as they provided one line for direct
to KLIA, did not stop at each station like general train would do. Stopped at
KLIA then change to bus to Sepang. The transportation price we paid included
train and bus. Took a picture was our most activity before the game started.
Around 12 we reached the venue by bus again. A bit far from main stage, outside
the area, sat down at grass, brought some plastic to be our chair. There were 2
choices for roof. Tarpaulin roof or real outdoor with sunshine as the roof.
Some big TV screen around there.
Race started and we just saw small car like Tamiya kept back
and forth hahahha….Lucky we didn’t buy earplug as it wasn’t so noisy actually.
It was bored as we couldn’t see the car clearly. Well for 500 hundred box
that’s the place we could get. IF you were able to pay one 5 millions more you
would get the best position.
The game was over at 4 pm. We went back to KL Central. Very
tired. Tired of standing by train and on queueng to get the bus to train. We
chosed by train to avoid traffic jam around the site.
The last day in KL, we went to Bukit Bintang area. High end
mall were there. Sungai Weng was a bit cheap for buying souvenirs and gifts.
Don’t compare with Lot 10, Fahrenheit. About 1 o’clock we went back to airport,
caught AA to get back Surabaya.
