As the Spanish are GP mad, make sure you get Grandstand tickets. When we went we only had circuit tickets. It was packed and we had to stand all day to watch the racing. The Spanish get there really early so be warned. The atmosphere is great. The circuit is outside Barcelona and is not far from the motorway. Like you, we stayed in France (Carnet Plage) and the commute to the circuit on the bikes was ok. You will be parking on grass so if you are on a bike don't forget a puck for the sidestand. The ride back to France is great. No one gives a toss about speed and all the bridges over the motorway are lined with waving locals.
