Bahrain International Circuit (BIC) announced yesterday the return of the fan-favourite Pit Lane Walk. After a two-year absence, the Pit Lane Walk is back, offering ticket-holders a unique chance to experience the F1 Pit Lane and see the top flight’s teams hard at work in their garages preparing for all the action of the Grand Prix weekend. The highly anticipated racing extravaganza is scheduled for 18 to 20 March at “The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East”, and the Pit Walk will be held on the Thursday of the event, 17 March, at 6pm.

Fans will be able to take pictures and, if lucky, spot one of their favourite F1 drivers in their garage, working with their engineers and mechanics. All those with tickets to this year’s F1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix will be able to access Thursday’s Pit Walk at no extra cost.

Tickets to the race weekend are selling fast, and fans are urged to purchase theirs as soon as possible online at BIC’s official website www.bahraingp. com or by calling the BIC Hotline on +973-17450000. Those who buy their tickets before 1 March will be able to enjoy added benefits, including free entry to F1 pre-season testing at BIC on 11 and 12 March.

Ticket discounts are available for the Grand Prix for children aged three to 12 at 50 per cent off, with reductions also available to students, those with special needs, and senior citizens. The F1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix 2022 is set to be an historic, once-in-a-generation occasion for motorsport, as it ushers in “A New Era” in F1 following the biggest shake-up in F1 rules and regulations.

Aside from F1, there will also be racing in the three support series, namely the FIA Formula 2 Championship, the FIA Formula 3 Championship and the Porsche Sprint Challenge Middle East. To complement the racing, BIC has lined up a spectacular off-track entertainment programme for the whole family to enjoy.

This will be highlighted by the back-to-back concerts on the Friday night of the race weekend, 18 March, when globally renowned DJs Don Diablo and Afrojack will take to the stage for separate live performances.
