Are they expecting a lot of visitors? I always have the impression that nobody visits the algarve circuit for some reason.
This would be my reply to you on Friday, but when I try to do it RD was down.
You know for most people, mainly around here, the first sport is Football and the ones that follow motor racing most of them only know, see or like to talk is F1 or WRC.
Then even the motor racing fans, most of them like write much in the internet about it, but they prefer to stay at home and watch on Tv, go to the beach or something else.
In here, you only see a full house, when F1 uses to come to Estoril, in Portugal Rally or in the MotoGP races.
Algarve is in the south, a bit far for most of people, a tourist place but tourist’s came mainly for the beaches.
So even is this excellent program, I don’t expect a lot of people, hope I’m wrong, but also don’t forget that the main grand stand in Algarve is very big, about 5 min walk from a side to side, to full it you need a lot of people and most of them are in the top floor where you can see almost the entire track and on the TV images most of times you only see the first floor.
But I have been watching several GT1 races and most of them have very empty grand stands, even in Silverstone, in a motorsport country, like you can see here:
