F1 Fanatic

Hi Teresa

You’re not dumb. These forums are great for picking up tips, as if one person doesn’t know, another does. That is all we have done for races we have attended the first time, as it is great for getting as much info as possible. There are loads of companies that offer hospitality – we have booked via bookf1.com, Just Tickets and Fugare F1 previously (Ed tends to contribute to the forum on a regular basis so may put a reply up anyway) but there are loads of other companies offering hospitality and you can find these just by doing an internet search. The only advice I would give is to suggest you make sure you go with a reputable company for anything like this.

From what I can remember the traffic on the Sunday in Nice the last few years has not been too bad, may be due to the time the boat leaves on race day. There is a car park at the top of the hill by the harbour if you travel up to the harbour from the Promenade Des Anglais and then it is a quick 2-3 minute walk down to the boat departure point although I am not sure if there are restrictions on the car park eg time limits, need a pass. I am sure if you contact the boat company they would be able to give you more information on the parking (the link is on an earlier e-mail I believe.)

Hi Teresa

Hospitality on Thursday is far cheaper and actually in my opinion better, would much rather be in the thick of it with the fans on qualifying and race day. That is of course if you plan to be there on the Thursday. There are some really good deals on Thursday and you get all the benefits at a fraction of the cost, which is what we do.

Hiya Caroline

We would be flying in on the Thursday so not sure what we can do. Will check nearer the time + see what prices come up. Thank you :)

Hi, I have 1 x General Admission – Z1 (Adult) Sunday ticket for sale at the price I paid £112 + delivery. I was planning to go when I booked the ticket last year but I am now unable to go. I watched the 2011 monaco grand prix from here and can highly recommend it.

Hi Guys
