Post Turkish Grand Prix
Has anyone heard about any transport links between Istanbul and the F1 circuit?

Someone has mentioned that taxi's will be the only mode of transport, but given the F1 circuit's location I find tis hard to believe.

I am sure the IETT will have something sorted out like they did for the CL final and this time they wont have to worry about getting their wheels nicked by drunken scousers.

If anyone is intending to visit next week;

IETT will be laying on buses from the major hotel districts, amongst which are Sultanahmet, Taksim, Aksaray, Mecidikoy..... (more were mentioned but I cannot recall these :oops: )

Apparently buses will be leaving every 10 mins or so until no more customers are queuing

Post the commute was too long!
We left at 10:30 am and got there at nearly 1 pm. We ended up walking the last 100 meters since the traffic was nearly at a standstill. The best way was via helicopter which may have set one back close to 1K lira. It was the quickest way in and out of Istanbul Park. Hung around until nearly 8 pm and got to Istanbul without any traffic.
