Three days of world-class racing and entertainment
Thousands of racegoers have already snapped up tickets to the hotly-anticipated penultimate race of the 2024 Formula 1 season, a statement said Sunday.
Following Max Verstappen’s victory in clinching the Formula 1 World Champion title during the Las Vegas Grand Prix Sunday, this event is expected to witness fierce competition among top teams, including McLaren Formula 1 Team, Scuderia Ferrari, and Oracle Red Bull Racing, as they strive for the coveted Constructors’ Championship title.
The first day is known as Family Friday, when children under 12 can get free access to the general admission area on Lusail Hill (when accompanied by a parent or guardian who has purchased a full price ticket) enabling them to enjoy activities in the Fan Zone.
A maximum of four free child tickets can be booked by an adult purchasing a full price ticket only for Friday General admission.
A wide range of other activations will be featured throughout the circuit including virtual reality laser tag, two-in-one go karting for children and teens, face painting, an immersive artificial intelligence (AI) photobooth and kids car racing.
Offering the weekend’s first opportunity to watch top-flight racing, fans can catch Porsche Carrera Cup Middle East, F1 Academy and FIA Formula 2 Championship drivers get behind the wheel for their practice races which will take place at intervals throughout the day.
At 4.30pm, spectators will be able to get the first glimpse of their Formula 1 heroes when teams and drivers take to the track for the inaugural F1 practice session whilst the qualifying for the nail-biting Formula 1 Sprint Race will take place at 8.30pm.
And once the sun goes down, Lebanese singer, performer and songwriter, Myriam Fares will headline the main stage in the concert area kicking off the weekend’s musical programme.
For the first time in Qatar, fans will also be able to see the heroes of the track at the F1 Fan Forum.
Across Friday and Saturday, F1 drivers will take to Fanzone’s main stage for a series of exclusive question and answer sessions.
On “Super Saturday”, race goers of all ages will be able to enjoy a plethora of racing, including the Porsche Carrera Cup’s first competitive race at 2.20pm, in addition to activities in the fan zones.
From F1‘s own Pit Stop Challenge, where spectators have the chance to try their hand at changing the tyres on a Formula 1 car, to F1 SIM which offers racegoers the chance to experience how it feels to drive the famous cars.
The fastest lap of the day wins prizes including signed merchandise and paddock tours.
The F1 Driver Selfie is an opportunity for fans to walk away with a digital or physical photo with their favourite Formula 1 team’s drivers whilst the F1 Static Podium gives fans the chance to experience what it’s like to celebrate pole position.
At 5pm, all eyes will be looking to the track when the high-octane Formula 1 Sprint Race takes place.
It will be followed by the all-important Formula 1 qualifying session at 8pm, which will determine the grid for Sunday’s Grand Prix.
The LIC is one of just six locations chosen to host the 100km dash, which gives teams another opportunity to score points for their respective championships.
For the first time, the F1 Academy’s maiden 14-lap race will take place on Saturday from 11.05pm.
The highly competitive all-female racing series is designed to nurture and propel young female drivers towards higher echelons of competition.
The final day of the Formula 1 Qatar Airways Qatar Grand Prix 2024, promises a packed schedule of racing and entertainment.
Racing fans will also have an opportunity to visit the support paddock to see Porsche Carrera Cup Middle East, F1 Academy and FIA Formula 2 Championship cars up close before they take to the track for their final competitive races.
With excitement levels building throughout the afternoon, F1 drivers and teams will take part in a parade at 5.30pm before the pit lane opens at 6.20pm.
The big moment – the Grand Prix™ finale – will take place at 7pm under the glow of the LIC’s floodlights.
Rounding off one of the most iconic racing weekends will be global pop rock icons Maroon 5 as they headline the post-Grand Prix finale in the LIC’s state-of-the-art concert area.
Open to Formula 1 race-goers, fans will only be able to watch both Friday and Sunday’s concerts if they have a one or three-day pass to Sunday’s Formula 1 Qatar Airways Qatar Grand Prix 2024.
Motorsport fans attending as part of a hospitality event will have VIP access to Sunday night’s concert.
