Ah, those romantic French

The organizers of the French Grand Prix are certainly not short of ideas to promote the event this year and have come up with the original concept of pitching tickets as a gift for Valentine's Day. The race is offering cut price tickets but these must be bought by February 15, the day after Valentine's Day. The French Grand Prix is even offering a card that one can print out and send to your valentine. For further details try www.gpfrancef1.com.

"It is a great opportunity for an innovative Saint Valentine's gift", said an FFSA spokesman.

At $83 per tickets it could be a very cheap date.
