The season-opening Grand Prix in Bahrain looks set to play out in front of fans, with the circuit confirming that individuals who can prove they are either fully vaccinated against Covid-19 or Covid-recovered can purchase tickets for the event.
In 2020, both the Bahrain Grand Prix and the following Sakhir Grand Prix, which took place on the outer loop, took place without fans in the grandstands.
This year, tickets will be available for both the Main Grandstand and Turn 1 Grandstand.
Entry will only be granted to ticket holders on presentation of a badge that proves either full vaccination against Covid-19 (two weeks have passed since second dose of vaccine) or recovery from the virus (two weeks have passed since date of infection).
For more information and tickets, visit the circuit website.
