MOTORSPORT – Bahrain International Circuit (BIC), ‘The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East’, announced yesterday the launch of ticket sales for Formula 1 Pre-Season Testing 2025.
The tests are scheduled to take place from February 26 to 28, and it will feature all 10 F1 teams as they step up their final preparations for the start of the 2025 FIA Formula 1 World Championship.
Tickets cost BD10 for adults and BD5 for kids per day for the two days open to fans on February 27 and 28.
To buy or to get more information, visit the circuit’s official website bahraingp.com or call the BIC Hotline on +973-17450000.
There is also free access on both days of testing for all who had purchased their tickets to the Formula 1 Bahrain Grand Prix 2025 in BIC’s recently concluded Early Bird promotion. This means that fans who have purchased tickets by December 7 will have access to the two amazing F1 events with just the single ticket.
BIC is also offering exclusive hospitality packages during testing, featuring the best views of the action along with incredible, five-star cuisine and beverage selection throughout the day.
The hospitality lounge is located right above the F1 pit lane, and fans will also get to do a pit lane walk.
Available on both open days, the hospitality packages cost $1,200 (including 10 per cent VAT) per person, per day. They can be booked by calling +973-17451086.
After the hugely exciting finish to this past F1 season, the tests will be an incredible opportunity for fans to witness the teams’ new cars in action all together on track for the first time in the new calendar year. The season then kicks off just two weeks after testing with the Australian Grand Prix from March 14 to 16.
The action will continue with races in China and Japan before returning to Bahrain for the fourth event of the 24-round championship – the F1 Bahrain Grand Prix – scheduled for April 11 to 13. It will be the first race of the season to take place in the Middle East.
This will be the fifth consecutive year that the kingdom is hosting the F1 pre-season tests, which were first held in Sakhir in 2009 and then again in 2014. They have since been held at BIC each year since 2021.
All those coming to BIC on testing’s two open days will be able to watch the F1 teams and drivers in action from the Main Grandstand, which overlooks the F1 pit lane and team garages, as well as the circuit’s main straight.
Tickets to the F1 Bahrain Grand Prix 2025 are also available online and by calling the BIC Hotline. Seats can be purchased to BIC’s Main Grandstand, Turn One Grandstand, Beyon Grandstand, University Grandstand, and Victory Grandstand.
Ticket prices are amongst the most affordable in the world for such seats, giving race-goers the best value for money to be a part of one of the most sought-after events in all of F1.
Fans are urged to secure their seats at the earliest following the tremendous popularity of Bahrain’s F1 race with fans around the world. Attendance records have been broken in each of the past few seasons, with last season’s event at BIC attracting an all-time high of 37,000 spectators on race day and 100,000 over the weekend, 11,000 of whom were international fans, which was another record.
Travel packages are also available for Bahrain’s F1 weekend, curated in collaboration with Gulf Air Holidays and Bahrain Tourism and Exhibitions Authority. These packages offer a range of options, including return flights, hotel accommodations, grand prix tickets, and transfers – all at competitive rates.
