Has anybody received their Canada tix yet? I am getting a tad concerned as I havent heard anything yet.
No but F1 emailed me to say they would be mailed a week or so before the race. I just hope it's in a reasonable package so DSL can drop in my mailbox if necessary. I think their minds are all on Monaco right now
When I got my tickets for BCN it was a simple pdf which I printed out. Bought from the track's own site, though
In Monza and Spa they kept them at the local box office. So much better than chasing DHL around the globe
Right, that's how it's been with F1.com all my years attending. Last year, I heard ticket clerks saying, "Sorry these are not valid, buy from f1.com." You can imaging the look on those poor peoples faces. I felt really bad for them. It was packed last year. I was back at Grandstand 33 with a friend. I'm going solo again this year back at Senna S. I think that makes a difference in how the tickets are handled. Maybe they did say 2 weeks? It's about time right now but probably won't arrive until after Monaco.
I'm starting to have sinking feeling that I'll get my tickets when I return from the trip. So I am looking at buying tickets through alternate venues. Stubhub offers tickets for download. But your story above makes me wonder whether that could happen to me then? It is really retarded that F1 waits so long before shipping the tickets. Don't they realize that people need some time to actually travel to a race?
