When will I receive my ticket?

You'll get a booking confirmation immediately after purchase. The actual e-ticket is sent by email approximately 3 days before the event on 23 October 2026.

Do I need to print my ticket, or is mobile accepted?

A mobile e-ticket is accepted at the gate. You can also print it if you prefer — either format works for entry.

What's the difference between the ticket options?

General Admission gives you access to standing areas across the circuit. Named grandstand tickets (Main Grandstand, Turn 1, Turn 9, Turn 12) provide reserved seating with specific views of the track. Upper and lower tier options within each grandstand vary by elevation and sightline.

Can I cancel or change my ticket after booking?

Cancellation and amendment policies vary by ticket type. Please review the cancellation terms shown during checkout before completing your purchase.

What happens if I have a problem on the day?

Contact your point of purchase immediately on the same day any issue arises — this is the fastest route to resolving on-site problems.

Does my 3-day pass cover all three days, or just the race?

Your pass covers the full event from 23 to 25 October, including practice sessions and qualifying as well as the Grand Prix on Sunday.
