This should make for an interesting evening. We presumably will have a choice of events as the Canadian GP is also on the Sunday evening. Most spectators will have departed by then so does anyone know of an appropriate bar to watch the match.
The Lotus Seven Club normally show the race but what about the footy

To watch the game you could try the "Cafe Bar Aux Portes du Circuit" which is (as it's name says) close to the main entrance, opposite the Expo campground. I remember watching Euro- or Worldcup-games on several occasions there. Another option which has worked out successfully in the past was to walk around the campgrounds after the race, look out for satellite dishes and ask the people wether they watch the game and wether you can join them.
Good luck
Werner

Was that the Heinekan bar Werner?? I think last year it had changed to the Kronenburg bar?  |

Not sure wether they serve Heineken (brrr... disgusting) or Kronenburg (even worse) there, but the big sign above the entrance says "Aux Portes du Circuit" and there is no other bar opposite the Expo campground, so it's easy to find. This place is also famous for watching some drag-racing on the street in front of it, unfortunately often interupted by the police.
Cheers

Yes, Heineken and then Kronenbourg, that's the place, turn right out of the circuits main entrance and it's on the right within about 200m.
I'd post a photo I took in 2003 (Heineken), but every time I put the camera to my eye a moron in a Chelsea shirt had to drop his drawers to show me his fat hairy a*se, and it's not a pretty sight. Interestingly, he thought this was hilarious.....

Yep, that's the place I'm thinking of. You will however be pleased to know that I don't have a Chelsea shirt!!!!
I do however have a rather fine CA t-shirt!
