@@namandalsania I bought it off StubHub and the GA wristbands were sent to me with tracking as soon as the seller received it from COTA. Not sure if it would be the same experience for you as every seller is different

@@rachelheeringa2587 we arrived there a little bit over an hour before the start of the engagement. I think we got lucky because driver engagement wasn't announced prior, so it's possible it was less crowded that year. From other races I have attended, people typically camp out at the stage as soon as the gate opens

Yeah, but I'm not sure on race day if it's limited access or first come. Also, you can't stay up there all day, they have people up there who ask folks to leave if they have been there for a while. There wasn't any strict rule to leaving tho, and even if you have to leave, you can see the track from the stairs as you climb down

F1 app contains both schedule and map for each gp, so you can try that

Check out circuitoftheamericas.com/event/f1/tickets/, there is a section for add-ons which contains concert upgrades

A few months before the race, the tickets go on sale from the COTA website circuitoftheamericas.com/event/f1/

On race day, it's better to be there early than later as traffic gets worse closer to the race time. I personally like to be there before 10 on race day to avoid traffic and be there to enjoy pre race events

@@bigeventguide thank you for the quick reply!

That's correct, mine wasn't clear and got through security without any problem

I don't think you can just purchase a concert ticket without purchasing a F1 ticket. If you already have a F1 ticket, you already have access to the concert, GA section. If you're looking for better viewing, concert upgrades are add ons that you can purchase from the COTA website circuitoftheamericas.com/event/f1/tickets/

@@bigeventguide thanks this is what i was looking for.

We didn't have any problems catching the shuttle after the concert ended. There was no line either when we got to the pick up location and there were a lot of shuttle waiting to pick up passengers. I think it runs till about an hour after the concert ends to allow everyone to get on the shuttle after the concert

@@bigeventguide Thank you

@@bigeventguide Thanks. Any other way to ask you questions for those of us that are not Reddit users??? Primarily interested in shuttle questions and day of the race questions. Thank.

Thanks for the great info! Didn't realize you could get in for free

Was it necessary to register? Where could I register?

We knew that there were two spots for track invasion, Turn 1 and Turn 19, but googling does show that there may be two more grandstand east and west. I'm not sure which ones were open for 2022 and which gates open up first or if they all open together. When I first got there, there wasn't that many people, but filled up pretty fast. I didn't know that I had to hang onto the fence to see the podium, so that's one thing that I would do differently in the future. Also people were very aggressive trying to get onto the fence, we witnessed a fight between two groups, so I would just be careful if you plan to do the track invasion.

We didn’t see any delay in waiting for the shuttle to pick up at the downtown or at the track. The only delay would be the traffic, which is not avoidable, but the shuttles do get their own lane to the track, so you’ll definitely arrive faster than any rideshare. One thing about ride share to COTA is that there is a designated location for drop off and pick up, which is quite far from the track. I believe if you get off there, you have to take the shuttle from there to the track. I also remember hearing that cell service there was horrible and made it almost impossible to call an uber and surge in price was also outrages. I would recommend the shuttle to avoid all the headache. If you don’t have shuttle tickets, I would take uber SUPER early in the morning. I believe some uber drivers did drop folks off at the track early in the morning, but was no longer allowed or possible once gate opened.
