Oh man that sounds like fun.  
You have any recommendations for a first live race for someone gett ...

A driver's track is Monaco - a narrow street circuit, difficult to overtake & impossible to drive, let alone race in the rain.  Only the best of the best can win multiple races in Monaco, e.g. Jim Clark,  Ayerton Senna, Michael Schumacher, and Lewis Hamilton.

However, Monaco is a POOR circuit for watching it in person because you only see one corner and for paying that kind of money?  No way, better watch it on TV!

With the advancement of TV broadcasting, play backs with commentators' analysis, different angle shots & from different locations, watching the races on TV makes a lot more sense than in person!

What is missing on TV are the high pitch engine noise & the spectators' roars ............

Believe it or not, watching a karting race in person is far better than watching  F-1 in person. Give it try, even a local race is a good beginning, unfortunately, this is almost the end of each year's kart racing schedule.
FYI,  for serious karting fans, consider World Karting Championship, World Team Karting Championship, World Female Karting Championship.  These races are held in different countries each year.  Of course, there are National Finals each year in every country to decide the drivers who will carry the national colours.

The next stop of 2022's F-1 GP will be held this weekend in Singapore.

Actual race will take place  ...

There will be live TV coverage tomorrow (SUN), starting at 0755.  Check your local listings!

please note 0755, not 0800.

Formation lap starts at 0755.  At 0800, the race has probably started and all cars have just passed the first corner!!

That's what I figured, it's takes a LOT of planning to see the race itself.  And payoff to see the actual car in action seems minimal as you literately get a second or 2 glimpse of the car and symphony of the engine.
Guess also it's the weekend festivities that come with the race is to enjoyed.

You have a website to see where Karting is happening in GTA?  It sounds like a great stepping stone to the big stage.

No idea about karting schedule in Ontario.  You do a search on Google but I am sure that the 2022 season is over by mid-OCT1

There is definitely live TV coverage of the 2022 Singapore F-1 GP, BUT there is a rain delay & race organizors are doing their best to push the water to the sewer drainage so that the race can get started after one hour.

If the track is wet, the proven rain master Hamilton, + probably Max, Russell will probably excel.  Let us see!

The 2022's Singapore F-1 GP has just ended:

Perez, LeClerc, Sainz

The surprise:  Perez drove very well & deserved to win.  He was a much better driver in the wet than all others.

The disappointment:  Hamilton had nothing to show for his wet talent.

Foreign escorts prices are already higher than Montreal "talents", add round trip ticket's cost to the meat + food and bed in a cheapy motel, who will take the bait?   Not me!
