Event review - Grand Prix of Portugal 2024

Stunning return to one of our favourite venues!

Great food, super beer & wine, all at great prices served by super friendly people make Portugal a popular destination for all!

We opened Thursday with our traditional welcome drinks, one at our well loved hotel Vitors and the other in the heart of Portimao at our favourite pub the Croke Park!

Friday saw us to track and back for a lovely day at the circuit. In the evening we had our traditional opening dinner at the superb Horta Grill. Our guests speakers were the husband and wife team of Maddie and Simon Patterson. Maddie has set up a woman's team in WorldSBK - she gave us the background and details of putting a female team on the grid. Her riders are from USA and UK and most of the staff are women! We hope to support the team starting their first race at Misano.

Simon is a regular speaker for us, and as always was fascinating! Tidbits from riders' lives, directions of teams and manufacturers and much more.

Saturday finished at the track with a superb Sprint race. We had several guests on the start grid to see the boys up close! Saturday night team guests stayed for dinner and an insightful talk from Spanish MotoGP guru Manuel Pecino. Other guests enjoyed the superb restaurants in Portimao; with late night in the strip at Portimao a fun cacophony of engines and mayhem!

All races were superb on Sunday; with a stunning podium of the Moto2 race, and a controversial MotoGP battle!

Sunday night we had our usual closing dinner at a classic Portugese grill restaurant. More drinks at our local bar capped a brilliant weekend!
