How to go to a Formula 1 race...on a Budget!

F1 Grand Prix are pricey events for the rich and famous right? Not necessarily! Here's your budget travel guide on how to attend a live Formula One race, without spending a fortune.

If you have the cash you can have a glamorous champagne and caviar experience. But the average F1 race is attended by hundreds of thousands of normal people. Although they are not cheap, you can definitely see live a Formula One grand prix with limited funds.

I’m a lifelong traveler and Formula 1 fan who’s been to a number of races the last few years, this is my AFFORDABLE step-by-step guide to booking and attending your first Grand Prix. I give detailed advice on which race to attend, where to sit (grandstand vs general admission), the ticket to buy and where to buy it, where to stay, and how to have an amazing time maximizing your experience and minimizing your expense.
