Driving

Road Advisories:
> Local road work / construction?
I haven't yet found a german web link for traffic warnings / alternate routes for raceday. The track is located at the intersection of 2 rather important german expressways so there's always exit backups on racedays.

Local Public Transit

Trains: See train information above in "directions".
Busses/Coaches I don't know about buss / Couch lines that offer service from Frankfurt and KOln, if you find out, let me know via the email link at the bottom of the page (enable java)
By helicopter Shuttle:???. There must be. There sure are loads of them around during raceday!

Entertainment:

Enjoy: Deck of cards & a flashlight & if you're more adventurous a town and camgrounds full of people who love the sport and who are ready for a good time.
Movies: I never noticed.
Casinos? Again, deck of cards and a flashlight
Restaurant Tip: Bring your own although there's a very popular pizza parlor on the small Hockenheim main Street!
