Grand Prix visitors will be able to enjoy complimentary access to the main fan activation areas at the event, including Spirit Plaza, Hart Plaza as well as the Riverwalk.

Michigan in Pictures 
I was working in Downtown Detroit for the very first Gran Prix in 1982 – it was a blast and a real novelty. We had small blimps cruising by our office windows. A group of us went on our lunch hour to see the free time trials on Friday and the drivers refused to race as the curve in front of Cobo Hall was too sharp. They delayed the time trials while they shoved more tires there. The noise was deafening and our office always had to close early due to the noise.
