I've commented and acted on this numerous times. Going to Silverstone and Suzuka the last few years has been cheaper overall than Miami or Vegas (and honestly gave COTA a run for its money) and we're phenomenal experiences.

Nevermind Mexico City which was significantly cheaper and significantly better than any of the US ones as a patron.

Ninja edit: as someone who lives on the East Coast of the US

I’m a midwesterner and I’ve been seriously looking at Spain or silverstone, Mexico is very tempting as well but last I looked it was more expensive than the European races

It is more expensive of a ticket in CDMX, but hotels and food are very inexpensive. But either way, I think your dollar goes further than it does in the US. Wild!

That's worse than I thought, I was pricing against somewhere like Belgium or Hungary lol. I'd rather go to Silverstone than Vegas or Miami any day.

Here's my little write up of Mexico City in 2022. I'm planning to do them for all of the races I've been to recently
