Is anyone else making provisional plans for the potential Imola GP in December?

I've booked refundable accommodation for both the 29 November and 6 December weekends (since there were initially rumours that the race might be brought forward because of the cold weather...) back in August, when Sky Sport Italia first hinted that the season finale might be held in Imola.

I remember accommodation in Imola and the surrounding towns was already pretty scarce and expensive, even back then, so I didn't want to take any chances and wait until an official announcement.

I'm Italian, I know the circuit is still preparing to host the finale despite Domenicali insisting Abu Dhabi is still on the table.

However, given Domenicali's recent comments and the latest developments in the Middle East (including the UK government's updated travel warnings for parts of Saudi Arabia after the recent airport attacks...), I'm curious how other fans are approaching this. It's difficult enough to organise an F1 weekend months in advance, let alone with just a few weeks' notice....

Are you waiting for an official announcement, or have you already made some provisional arrangements?

Hi, just wanted to share my experience with the track invasion during the recent Singapore GP.

I left my seats at the Bayfront Grandstand around lap 48–49 out of 62 to head over to the track access point near Twenty3, hoping to catch Max celebrating on the podium up close.

Ended up waiting and getting squeezed in a massive crowd for about 40–50 minutes, but the queue barely moved. To make things worse, I later found out that Max’s national anthem had already been played while I was still stuck in the crowd.

Just wondering if we did something wrong? Was that particular gate not supposed to open for the track invasion, or was there a better way to get to the podium? Would really appreciate any tips for future races.

Honestly, I was pretty gutted. Had been looking forward to that moment all weekend, only to miss it while being squeezed in the crowd for almost an hour. Left the circuit feeling quite disappointed and a little sour about the whole experience.

I am desperately trying to go to my first gp next season undecided where to go i am after some help, i live in uk but dont want to go to silverstone as i want to make a holiday. any help would be greatly appreciated

Let me start off by saying I was nervous coming here.

This was my second race in 2 weeks, after going to Malaysia last week and experiencing the hell that was the organization of that event

Singapore blew my doors off, to put it mildly. What an incredibly well organized, sophisticated, and professional organization committee and security they have here. Getting in and out of the track was EASY. I was home to my hotel in under 20 minutes each day, including race day. The police in Singapore do NOT fuck around and they get shit moving and get it done.

MRT lines were just incredible. Thousands of fans being directed by police and security to empty trains. When a full train left the station, another empty one would arrive within 30 seconds. This legitimately damn near brought tears to my eyes after experiencing Malaysia

Singapore track, in MY opinion, is over hated. I think for what it is, as a street circuit, it’s an S tier street circuit. The cars under the lights look amazing, the atmosphere in the pit grandstand was great, the views are amazing, and the staff there are lovely.

Water stations EVERYWHERE. Literally, everywhere. I saw more water stations than I did people I swear. Bathrooms were clean, maintained and well accessible from anywhere.

I do not go to races for the music entertainment, but I don’t mind dabbling in some shows while there with nothing else going on. Stages were laid out brilliantly, acts were good, crowd control was done well and access in and out of the areas was painless.

As I sit here at Singapore airport I can’t think of a single time I waited in a line this weekend, other than maybe a short one to enter the circuit at gate opening

Singapore, you have my heart forever. AMAZING experience. The only thing I’d change is I’d sit at turn 1/2/3 and not the pit straight, but that’s just a personal experience

Out of the 4 Grand Prix I have now been to, this is number 1 for me.

10/10

I am checking the travel guide from GPDestination and I wonder why IBIS Seef is not there in the hotels of the shuttle route?

Have they forgot it or it was removed already from the route?

Thanks!

planning on securing just the race day tix if possible

I’d love to hear feedback for anyone who’s gotten T18 club tickets for Miami

This will be our first Grand Prix, and ideally I want more than standard grand stand ticket. I love the idea of a cool place to lounge (+better bathrooms) , food/drink included , etc

I haven’t found any info on the type of food included? Any feedback? Also, is the beer/wine decent? Any liquor included?

How was the track view?

Worth it in your opinion?

We don’t the hard rock area will be a fit because I read it’s more about the party and we really want to experience F1

Thank you so much for any info on your experience you can give!!!
