I am booked up to go over to Barcelona for the F1 Grand prix next month, however as yet ive not bought a ticket!

Last time I went, I bought them through the circuit de catalunya website and picked them up on arrival.

Try here http://www.circuitcat.com/ingles/venta/index_f1.asp

Their site is offering tickets for "granstand p" but personally I wouldn't go for those. Find a UK agent is your best bet, maybe looking for Stand F or G tickets. I last booked tickets though a travel company who had a tickets only service but I just can't remember the name.

Also, if you are booking a hire car from anywhere on the coast/airport to collect on race day or qualifying day make sure you have the EARLIEST pickup in the day or you are likely to be delayed in my experience.

Crystal holidays offer grandprix holidays

Also have a look at the ITV F1 website as they have advertisements for F1 holdiays

Have a great time

try https://www.f1ticket.info they have general admission tickets fairly reasonable if you can't find anything else. Their grandstand tickets are a bit pricey- although the other sites i tried are all showing sold out.

I sat in Grandstand C last year and paid about £80 as a price comparision. Unfortunately, it looks to be a popular event again in Barcelona thanks to Mr Alonso!

Don't forget the suncream and agree with Lorian about organising your transport- it is a long walk from the station if you decide to get the train (at least 45 mins uphill in 90 degrees weather last year- added to the very hot and packed train journey) personally although the roads will be packed to get into the circuit I would have rather sat in an air conditioned car and would if i went again. Also try and take sandwiches, snacks with you as they can be expensive inside the circuit.

There's a link under the heading "On-line Sales Points" about half way down the page.

Had a look, as far as i can tell from it theyre not selling tickets any more. although i may be wrong as my spanish is not good!

Moral of my story, i should have bought earlier - if only work gave me the time off sooner :mad:

Seems to be the last remaining tickets- other than just turning up and trying to buy from a tout. Or stay in Barcelona and find a decent bar to watch it in?
