    As the "company which was handling media credentials for the drifting people [who you feel] screwed up and gave everyone some half-assed credentials which wouldn't even let us get into the stands...[allowing] the average paying customer [to have] better access...," I'd like to attempt to make a few points:

    1) there were an admittedly & embarrassingly large amount of credential problems...I thought I'd personally apologized to all affected parties and rectified whatever situations there were, but again, sorry. First race of the year, stupid cred set-up, me screwing up, regardless, my apologies.

    2) As for media creds (AKA Overcrew passes) not allowing access to reserved grandstands, that's simply the nature of the beast at these events and is in no way related to any credential hiccups...the events are funded by the average paying customers you made mention of, and said ticket-buyers pay extra for reserved grandstand seating. The media cred/overcrew pass grants access EVERYWHERE else, from the hot pit to the race grid to any of the 100+ trackside photo stands.

    All of that said, I sincerely thank everyone (media, fans, etc) from coming out to the event, watching history be made and enjoying the great show the Formula D boys put on!
