I was wondering if anyone knew if it was safe to go to the formula 1 GP when you're 31 weeks pregnant?
Should I be worried about the noise for my baby?
Thanks for any advice

I wouldn't have a clue! but just to say I'm Envy enjoy the GP Wink

I would expect it to be perfectly safe but since it is expensive to get tickets I would perhaps ask a midwife for confirmation before you spend your money.

Thanks. Thing is, I'm sitting in the practice session now and thought I'd check if anyone knew.
Should have probably thought if this earlier, but tickets were bought before I was expecting Smile

I really wouldn't worry too much. It can't be that different from attending a rock concert or living next door to Heathrow airport can it? Also it is not a long term exposure, it is just a day!

A quick google has not uncovered any evidence of risk.

Thanks kat. I couldn't find anything either but searching from phone is not so easy.

Not too different to normal around this time I must say.
