Live DJs and race commentary on the big screens from the Fan Zone (run well by the W Hotel). This was a nice value-add, not only the atmosphere of the Zone but the big screen happenings.

The Motorway entrance at night from the comfort of the shuttle bus that ferried us from the parking lot to the grandstand and back.
