CHINESE FORMULA 1 GRAND PRIX

We had a great time and the tickets were perfect. K is one of the best sections for viewing the race. Transportation Friday-Saturday was the train. For race day we got a car service that picked us up at the hotel, parked and then waited there all day. It made getting in and out extremely easy. Overall a beautiful facility.

excellent service

Is an exceptionally good circuit, with Seating in the K section providing the premium position to view the tracks main area for overtaking opportunities. No yellow flags or pace cars provided for a non stop thrilling race.

There is nothing like a F1 weekend. Getting early to the track on a Friday morning to watch the practice, more racing on Saturday before the main event on a Sunday where all the cars fire up their engines. It does not matter the location - F1 is still just awesome.

Having a 3 day pass for Shanghai you can walk to different stands on the Friday. We "tried" the different stands on the track to get the overvview. Had a look at b1-b3 stands and it was impressive how the cars flew around corner 1. Did a trial on the L and K stands where you could see the breaking mistakes some did on corner 14 \16. Our main seats where in the upper Main Stand which gave you a view of most of the track. I would most likely go with Main Granstand upper tickets again as I felt I could view most of the race either visual or by the monitors.

The facilities in Shanghai is not the worst. The normal "junk food" is serverd at the track, pricing is acceptable and there is also an outside area where more food\beer can be purchased which has more options. Between the races there was not much to do after you had done the normal "shop walk" trip. Bring some paper towel or similar to clean the seats before sitting down as the Shanghai dust covered the seats.

I would recommend to use the line 11 to get to\from the track. Friday\Saturday was normal schedule while on Sunday they had put on extra trains to manage the traffic. Getting early to the track on a Sunday is advisable as it was quite a queue outside just before the race started and I think some of them must have missed the first few laps.

Very well organised - transport via metro worked well

action and fun

A good experience, although I would like to be able to see a seat map when booking. The food outlets are not so good, so on race day we took our own.
Easy access on line 11, although Chinese security did their best to stop people leaving the circuit at the end. Also people stand to see the cars pass, but security in our stand B2 tried to make people sit down.

Platinum tickets, worth the cost, best seats in the house, overlooking pole position and the pits. Included hospitality butties and coffee. Also for that stand area, very clean, toilet facilities - if you know China this is a big plus!!!! Used the metro to get to the track, arrives at the main gate, easy and cheap. Well organised queing system for the metro back after the race so no long wait.

Tickets delivered as promised 3 weeks before race. The View was excellent and the directions to the track easy to understand. Overall a great service.

It was just awesome!!! great race

I ve been to Sao Paulo 3 times... In Terms of Infraestructure... This wa Exelent!!

I happened to be in Shanghai for work, so made a last minute decision to try and get some tickets for the Grand Prix. I chose bookF1.com largely at random from a Google search, and so felt a little anxious when I finally decided to make the purchase. The website made the purchasing process very straightforward, and the follow-up communication from bookF1.com was excellent. I was still a bit apprehensive when I went to the circuit to pick up the tickets, but I needn't have worried.
Overall the booking experience was very good, (I enjoyed the race as well!) and I wouldn't hesitate to use bookF1.com in the future.

I had another great time at a Grand Prix. My hotel in Shanghai was across the street from the buses that went to the race.

The race weekend Fri - Sun was very enjoyable. The Friday access all grandstands was unexpected but welcome which gave a very good appceciation of the whole circuit. Good control of zonal access by security this year, controlled by chiped tickets.
The transport - Fri used the Bus servise form the city to the circuit 50 rmb for the return. however the Merto was right at the circuit and we used this to return to the city cost 6 rmb. The Sat we used the metro but found out that the only transport to the circuit was by coach the metro was closed ! on race day.
The circuit facilities compared to 2007 the last time i went. Very poor food availability and equally poor merchandise stands.

Just made it to the race, but now still in Shanghai due to thhe ASH. Better safe than sorry. Race day was action packed! There was no fres shuttle as expected to circuit, however 50 yuan return not bad from Shaghai stadium. More selection on food needed, and more stands! No free shuttle buses seen on Sat or Sun as it read in programe guide to get from one stand to another.
Very pleased with service from bookf1, thank you.

The race was amazing, thats the main thing, seats not too bad. Toilet facilities excellent. Not enough food stalls, too much of a walk and queues. Security staff were useless!!! All they did was stand around, talk and take photos, and eat! Poor signage, as on Friday, gates was closed to get to car park, went past many security staff, nobody bothered to tell us you cant go that way, only until we got to gate found out had to walk all the way back!!! The TV screens on circuit need to be larger. Tickets should allow access on Saturday as well as Friday to sit anywhere, but only allowed this on Friday. The merchandise sold was NOT 2010!!! It was old 2008 stock!!! and heavily over priced.
Was dissapointed that no signings from drivers, and only Mercedes made effort with huge stand.

Too much police control on the area , not possible to take free photo some time .

No meat pies! Could have better menu!

My flight was cancelled, VS0250 from London Heathrow to Shanghai, so I didn't get to the race. The only saving grace that it was a British and McLaren 1st and 2nd.

Great. Colection of tickets from circuit very smooth, thanks.
Shuttle busses - very unclear where to find at Shanghai stadium, couldn't work out what gate 7 was, the busses were near steps 2! They left from a different place sat & sun. No signage to say F1 or Grand Prix, just had to follow Ferrari hats!
On arrival at circuit no shuttle from car park 13 to main entrance or signs where to go, a long walk round. Expected shuttle maybe only on Sunday, no sign of one, ended up paying 50yuan for a bike ride.
View from stand good but no tanoy working on B1, felt we missed a bit of the action.
Still had a great weekend, thanks for the service.
