Hi All,

I'm getting orgnaised for Christmas this year, and one of the present ideas is a couple of tickets to the Italian F1 next year.

So I'm wondering if anyone knows when the tickets are released? Are they usually this side of Christmas?

Thanks in advance,

CampDavid

TBH, you only get an e-mail confirmation. The tickets need to be collected when you get there (take a passport with you!)

We've done it for two years, it's a pretty good race.

We've done it by flying Ryanair is silly cheap (£40ish) and lands at Bergamo. Bergamo is about 45mins from Monza itself by train (about 4euros) and therefor really easy to get into the track.

Bergamo itself is a lovely town and hostels are cheap there. We stayed in a gorgeous one this year. If you're keen on there I have the number of a great place which we used this year. Alternatively hostelworld.com is good for finding a place.

Bergamo is brilliant as it's halfway between Monza and the lakes so on the Monday we noramlly head to Como, Tuesday Milan.

Watching the race? First year we were on the edge of the final corner. Great for jumping over to see the celibrations at the end, not so good for action. Grand stands are pricey but not a bad choice.

Camping wise you could be very, very cheaky and camp at the track. Get there on the Thursday and you won't even need a race ticket. Risky, but loads of people did it this year.
