F1: British GP fans whining over ticket price increase

–by Mark Cipolloni–

British GP fans are whining online about an increase in Pit Walk tickets, and we have to laugh because compared to what fans are paying for other F1 tickets (as Vegas GP for example) they are getting a bargain.

The 2023 British Grand Prix for charging £129 for a pit lane entry package at the upcoming race in Silverstone.

Silverstone really 😆😆🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️ £129 is extortionate!! #BritishGP pic.twitter.com/OwKuyab9UE

Horwood continued:

The pitwalk used to be free 3+ years ago.
Last year was £29 for the pitwalk with museum ticket.
Now £129 for pitwalk, museum ticket and guaranteed entry to the evening stage area.

A 345% increase in price 🤷🏼‍♂️💸

£129 Silverstone are trying to charge for access to a “launch party”, museum pass and a “complimentary” pit walk on Thursday at the F1. Actual insanity. First time I went pit walk was free, last year it was £29 for pit walk and museum… £100 for a “party”, yeah…No thx.
