Tickets are selling fast for the Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix 2021 and Bahrain International Circuit (BIC) is calling on all COVID-19 vaccinated or recovered individuals who are interested in attending the motorsport extravaganza to get theirs today! The region’s biggest and most anticipated event is only a few days away, and all eyes from around the world will be on “The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East” from Friday, March 26, to 28 for the season-opening round of the 2021 FIA F1 World Championship.

Tickets to the race weekend, available only to COVID-19 vaccinated or recovered fans, are being sold at a single discounted price of BD100 across stands for all three days.

Comprehensive measures will be in place at the circuit at all times to ensure spectators can enjoy the excitement of F1 in a safe environment.

Tickets can be purchased online at BIC’s official website, bahraingp.com, or BIC’s newly opened stand at City Centre Bahrain, located on the ground floor near gate number three in the West Court.

The stand is operational every day between 10 am and 10 pm. All ticket buyers are in for an additional treat as BIC is offering a unique prize to one lucky winner in a draw. The incredible prize is a framed Bahrain GP license plate, signed by every F1 driver from the 2020 race.

To have a piece of F1 memorabilia signed by every driver is so rare, it is a prize that money simply cannot buy.

This invaluable memento features all 20 signatures of the top flight’s stars, with the date of last year’s unforgettable night race.

Everyone who buys an F1 ticket before 12 noon on March 26 will be automatically entered into the draw for a chance to win the prize.

The winner will be chosen at random.

Throughout the coming weekend, F1 racing will be complemented by a stellar support programme featuring the FIA Formula 2 Championship, which will be hosting the first round of its 2021 campaign, and the Porsche Sprint Challenge Middle East, which will be staging its 2020/2021 season-finale.

The second of two Porsche sprints in the meeting will be a memorial race, dedicated to late Austrian motorsport legend Walter Lechner, who was a true friend to BIC and the Bahraini motorsport community.

He was the driving force in the establishment and running of the Porsche Sprint Challenge ME, ever since its first race in 2009. Aside from the racing, attendees will be able to enjoy a wide array of fun activities across BIC’s F1 Village vending area.

These include a selection of wild outdoor rides and fun activities for the whole family.
