What equipment did you use to take these pics?

I used a Canon 6d (which is no good for sports apparently ) and a Sigma 150-600c.

Nice.

As per the Sigma thread, great shots. These look like they're shot from different parts of the track, did you find it easy enough to move around? I've not been for 10 years but once I got my spot I daren't move again

Cheers Snerkler! Yeah I wondered about and selectively shot and moved on again (making sure I had views of the big screens at all times so as not to miss any key parts of the race!). The crowds are quite big but the opportunities are always there

Nice.

Cheers!

Nice set, wish I was there!

Not a bad GP but spoilt by the decision to have a safety car start I don't like Hamilton but was glad to see a Brit in 1st at this GP.

Yes, was a good race, one of the better GPs I've been to for a while!
