F-1 Fan-Fest, Austin, Texas, US Grand Prix, COTA, 2012

Auto Racing and Austin, Texas, initially did not seem like a good fit to many.  But Formula 1, like Austin, is unique, attracting the best engineers and drivers and incorporating highly advanced technologies.  And when the F-1 circus came to town, downtown Austin took part with a Formula-1 themed party atmosphere that encompassed about 5 square blocks of the restaurant-bar district.

This event is covered in 4 photo galleries: (1) Friday Practice-1 & Practice-2; (2) Saturday Practice-3, & Qualifying; (3) Downtown Austin Fan-Fest; and (4) Sunday – race day.
