Nice - panning or photoshop blur? I presume former?
Do they just let you in with a big lens. I went to vegas and the rules said - no big lens/bodies.
My wife is lobbying for vegas again this year - but I want to do Imola next May.
Or try one of the IMSA endurance race events. The one here in Ontario, at Mosport (Canadian Tire Motorsports Park), was very easy to photograph as a spectator from a number of locations (I used my 200-400 and 70-200, but some spots would benefit from a 600 & 1.4 or 2x TC), and was only about $70 for the weekend (the featured race was only 2.5 hours though). I posted some photos in the summer images thread here. OK, sure, it's not F1, but IMO it's probably the second best car race weekend in Canada other than the Montreal GP. It is probably the best major car race in Canada to photograph from general admission. Unfortunately the top class of cars was not there this year, but it was still very worthwhile. My wife even enjoyed it.  You're closer to Road America in Wisconsin, which apparently is another really nice track. F1 is cool, but IMO probably better to watch on TV.
If you're going to do a race in Europe, my vote would be Le Mans.

Panning, I did mostly between 1/15 and 1/50
I'm curious what you used as a ND solution considering the filter size of the 100-300 is quite large.
Did you climb the fence and walk the track after the race? Not sure if that still happens. It's probably what I remember most from when I was there some (long) time ago.
