We are staying in Pero just outside of Milano and have tickets for grandstand 10(seconda variante). 1) in Biassono, if you arrive quite early you can find some spots and the entrance is Santa Maria delle Selve.

Entrances A and B are indeed best for Grandstand 8b. From there you can take the Blue shuttle bus, which will drop you off at Ingresso (Gate) G.

In any case expect me to elaborate on our experience in September! I suppose that the logical thing is that I get the 10 ticket for the train+shuttle bus, right? Can confirm shuttle busses are 5 EUR. To Monza and shuttle bus, or too Biassano and walk to prima variante.
