Spa Francorchamps - advice please

[Rich Maskell]

Alright.

I'm after some advice for Spa, as I'm off there this season.

Is there any way one can pick up a Radio Five Live signal at the circuit? I've researched DAB radio and there is no signal. 3G will cost a fortune on the iPhone etc. So short of payign £60 for an official mini receiver, is there a way?

Many Thanks.

Spa is awesome went last year for just the race, but i don't have anything to help you with what you are after haha.

Can you speak to your phone provider and look at roaming data bundles?

There is a local FM F1 broadcast in french (and occasionally english and dutch if my memory serves me) which is the same broadcast as the speakers. It's good to have if you're walking in no mans land.

Id be tempted to get some kind of local PAYG sim and buy a months data bundle for it. At least that way as long as there's decent 3G reception you'll get digital audio and guaranteed English commentary.
