Can one walk around the track, like at most motorcycle races, or must you get a specific seat? I was looking online at the tickets and it gives options for seating areas. I didnt see any options for the paddock area, either. I'm assuming this race doesnt "sell out" so purchasing at the track would be OK?

You should be able to sit about anywhere in the grandstands. If the seat is reseved, just move. They will not let you stand near the fence though. Not sure how the paddock area is run...

Make sure to walk down the fence and scope them out tipping into turn 1. Lots of good vantage points. Try to score a radio to listen it's a long race and hard to keep up with.

I think there was a vendor renting radios that picked up frequencies that the broadcast, race control, and teams were using.
