Abu Dhabi Formula 1 Grand Prix

Hey all

It's stretch I know for most of you but thought I would drop it in the mix.

I work as the Ticketing Manager for the Abu Dhabi Formula 1 Grand Prix (see www.yasmarinacircuit.com).

If any of you decide you want to come to the race NO FREEBIES but let me know and I will get you the best seats possible. It's going top be the best race of the season - no joke - check out the track


Tix go onsale March 30th - let me know if you are interetsed.

Ummm - and plkease don't spread this around - just wanted to restrict it to the forum.

Just a thought

Thanks! I think that maybe 3-4 people on this forum will be close enough for this event. I'll be in that region this summer.

Some more info

Hi Guys

Great to hear your excited - ABu DHabi Mototrsport Mgt has been working on this since April '08 and I have been there since Sep '08 and it's all been very hush hush till last week so it's good tofinally start getting some feedback!

It's not worth my kahoona's to release prices to anyone anywhere at the moment but expect to pay similar prices to other GP's.

As for accommodation (Sam you may have a horde of people staying!) - Abu Dhabi is notoriously expensive so I would look to Dubai for accom if you were going to say in a hotel - Yas is only 50 minutes down the road and there will be shuttles etc running constantly.

Sam - leave it with me - you never know what I might be able to come up with.

As far as best seats I personally think the middle of the long arm of the West Grandstand will be amazing - full view of the longest straight piece of race strack for any circuit plus you can see the start and finish grand.

If you want to be ON the straat finish grid then Main GS is best of course!

Best thing to do is register on the site and start bugging me round middle of March - I''ll make sure you get the best possible.

'Nuff said - "We will welcome the world" is the slogan - kinda like it!

Thanks. I didn't know pricing wasn't released yet or I wouldn't have asked you for it; don't want anyone to get in trouble. I've never been to any racing events outside of the US, so I'll search around and see what average prices are to have an idea. I'll be in touch.
