How can I purchase tickets?

We encourage you to book your tickets online. The process is very simple, taking less than two minutes.

Where can I purchase genuine F1 tickets and how can I avoid ticket scams?

Genuine tickets and hospitality packages are available from the Formula1.com website, F1 race promoters and/or appointed agents.

Formula 1 is aware of ticketing scams including fraudulent websites, suspicious emails, SMS and social media messages. Red flags to look out for when looking to purchase race tickets and Paddock Club tickets are:

• Persistent or unsolicited sales emails, often from a site for which you don’t remember registering;
• Offers of heavily discounted race tickets or Paddock Club tickets;
• A sense of urgency as to the ‘last remaining tickets’;
• Grammatical errors on the websites, emails or social media messages;
• Irregular looking email addresses or use of commonly available addresses such as @outlook or @gmail rather than business addresses;
• Being asked to converse via social media messages, including WhatsApp, and to transfer the fees to a bank account rather than paying through a secure portal;
• Any purported endorsement by the FIA, such as confirmatory letters purporting to be from the FIA (the FIA is the regulatory body and so is not involved in the sale of tickets).

Please note that Formula 1 cannot be held responsible for any damages that arise from any such dealings with other vendors therefore we ask that you remain vigilant.

How do I log in to my personal ticketing account?

Go to “My Account” under Formula1.com > Tickets > Select any ticket-store > click on “My account” in the upper right corner of the ticket store and provide your log-in details. You can also find a direct link to your account here.

Please note that the sign-in on the Formula1.com home page is dedicated to F1 Access only – you cannot access your Ticketing account from there.

Where can I find the race timetable?

Go to https://www.formula1.com/en/racing/2026 and select the event of your interest. The race program is available for each Grand Prix under “Full Timetable”.

When are the event dates confirmed?

FIA must always confirm the event dates ahead of each season, which usually occurs in December. You can purchase tickets for the events that are open, even though the exact dates are not yet confirmed. If a date is yet not confirmed, this will be indicated by the text “TBC (To Be Confirmed”) next to the event date in the ticket shop. Please be aware that you are purchasing tickets for the event, and not for specific dates.

How do I know whether the tickets I want are still available?

If a certain ticket category is available, you will be able to choose your desired quantity and add it to your Basket. A 'sold out' message appears for tickets that are no longer available.

Please contact our Customer Care department by email or telephone if you would like further information.

How can I find out the characteristics of a grandstand/tribune/loge?

You can do this by clicking on 'details' next to the stand name. The circuit/stadium map on the top right of the page offers you an overview of the stand locations as well. Click on the map to zoom in/out.

Can I request a special seat?

Selecting specific seats online is not possible. However, you can send us your seating preferences when placing your order, and we will do our best to accommodate them. Final seat allocation will be confirmed upon ticket issuance, closer to the event date.

Will my tickets have adjoining seats?

As per the Terms and Conditions acknowledged during the booking process, seat allocation is managed by the event promoter on a first-come, first-served basis within the allotment assigned to us. This means that customers are not able to select specific seats at the time of booking.

Tickets purchased within the same order will be seated together where possible, but this is subject to availability and cannot be guaranteed.

If you have multiple orders or wish to request adjoining seating, please contact our Customer Service team. We’re happy to note your preference and forward it to the relevant department. While we will do our best to accommodate such requests, please be aware that we cannot guarantee seating arrangements.

Please also note that 3-day tickets and single-day tickets in the same Grandstand are not typically seated together. For further clarification, don’t hesitate to reach out to our team.

Are tickets for children available?

Reduced-price tickets for children may be available for some events. Please be aware that there may be age restrictions in place that prohibit children under a certain age from attending. Additionally, certain product categories may have their own specific restrictions. We recommend reviewing these details on the ticket description before purchasing tickets.

Are parking tickets available?

For some events, you need to purchase parking tickets in advance. If available, you can usually find these tickets in the online ticket shop. Please contact customer service if you would like further information regarding parking tickets.

How do I know if a grandstand is wheelchair accessible?

Please contact customer service regarding tickets for disabled persons.

Can I cancel my ticket order?

After you have confirmed your order online, we cannot accept cancellations. Contact our Customer Care department for cancellation policies.

Can I add tickets to my order after the booking has been processed?

Yes, you can add tickets to your order if seats in your selected section are still available. Please contact us before placing an additional order to ensure that we can arrange for your additional tickets to be seated together with your original tickets. We cannot guarantee that seats will be available, but we will always do our best to accommodate your requests. Please note that any changes are subject to approval.

Can I modify my order?

Orders are not generally changeable. However, if you have a request please contact our Customer Care department by email or telephone.

Can I use the Official F1 Timing APP to get my tickets?

No, the Official F1 Timing App cannot be used to obtain or access your tickets.

 

Can I get a refund if I can't attend the race?

Tickets are generally non-refundable, as stated in our Terms and Conditions. We recommend reviewing your order details carefully before completing the purchase.

Are F1 tickets refundable if the event is postponed or delayed?

If the event is officially postponed, delayed, or rescheduled by the circuit or event organisers, we will contact all affected customers directly with the available solutions as soon as we receive further information.

Please note that the options offered will depend on the solutions provided by the event promoter, but we will do our best to assist you through the process.

Basket

What is a Basket?

The Basket, on the upper right-hand side of the « Tickets » page, is used for storing the tickets you reserve before proceeding to the Checkout. After adding tickets to your Basket, you can easily remove them or change the desired number.

How can I add tickets to my Basket?

Find the tickets you want, enter the desired number with the +/- buttons, and then click the "ADD" button.

How can I change the number of tickets in my Basket?

Click the button entitled « Basket » located on the upper right-hand side of the page. The content of your Basket will appear. Use the +/- buttons to change the ticket quantity.

How can I remove items from my Basket?

In the Basket area on the upper right-hand side of the page, click on "delete" for the item you want to remove.

 

How many tickets can I purchase at once? Can I make a group booking?

The number of tickets you can purchase per order depends on availability for that specific product.

If you wish to buy a large number of tickets for a group, please contact our Customer Service team. We’ll review availability and do our best to accommodate your request.

Payment

What type of payment do you accept?

We accept credit card payment and bank transfers. To pay via bank transfer, please contact us by email with your precise order request (be sure to include your full contact details and invoicing address) to receive an invoice.

Do you accept debit cards?

Yes, if your debit card has a Mastercard or Visa logo, it can be used like a credit card for online purchases.

How safe is the payment using my credit card?

Our payment platform is fully secured. An "SSL" (Secure Socket Layer) connection exists between your browser and the server. This means that data is transferred only after being encrypted and thus cannot be abused by third parties. Your personal data is only used to carry out your order.

Our server guarante the highest possible level of encryption currently available.

Should you prefer not to transfer your data over the Internet despite our high security standards, we would be happy to accept your credit card information by telephone or email.

When will my credit card account be debited?

As soon as your order has been confirmed, your credit card account will be debited with the amount due as per your booking.

How can I pay by bank transfer?

You will need to contact our Customer Care department by email or telephone and ask for an invoice to be sent to you by email. Before contacting Customer Care, we kindly ask that you create an account on our website. In order to prepare your invoice, Customer Care will need to have the following information:

• Event
• Day of the tickets
• Amount of tickets
• Category of tickets

Orders will be confirmed as soon as payment has been received and confirmed.

If the above information does not answer your question(s), please contact us at [email protected].

When must the bank transfer be paid?

Once you have successfully placed your order by email or telephone, an invoice will be emailed to you as a PDF file. The invoice states the date the payment is due.

Why do you sometimes charge handling fees?

A handling fee may be applied depending on the event chosen. Thus, in order to cover our costs and to be able to offer you optimum service, we need to apply a small percentage to the ticket price.

Why is there a difference between the online value of the ticket and what I paid for it?

We provide various currencies for your information in the Ticket Store. However, the currency in which you are debited may vary. Information on what currency your order will be processed in appears on the payment page of the Ticket Store.

My payment was refused, what should I do?

Please use one of the following options to finalise your order:

- Try again, perhaps with another credit card. Please also make sure to check for any typing errors, deactivate Caps Lock and double-check the card details.

- Contact your bank to check why the transaction was denied. Sometimes banks need to authorise international payments. It could have also been due to a 3D Secure authentication error, in which case you may need to ask your bank to change how they verify your identity. 3D Secure is a layer of security that your bank requires where you'll have to enter a password or SMS code to authorise payment.

- Contact our Customer Care department for assistance with the purchase. Our agents can assist you by issuing a proforma invoice to be paid by bank wire transfer.

My order is in a payment error status. Will I still be charged, or can I attempt to make the payment again?

Unfortunately, once an order is in a payment error status, we cannot process it. If you'd like to purchase those tickets, you need to create a new order.

My order is in security check, what does it mean?

This means that our credit card security system has detected an irregularity with your order. You simply need to supply our security department with the requested information. This check is to protect you from fraudulent credit card use.

Can I pay for F1 tickets in instalments or use payment plans?

At the moment, payment plans or instalments are not available for F1 tickets. All orders must be paid in full at the time of purchase.
