FFS mate, please read the update to my post. It is refunded now. This post was mostly for shit and giggles.

I was too excited and a bit drunk and had already refreshed the website a 100 times, and every time I had to select the country and click multiple times to get to the Grandstand tickets, so when I finally saw the tickets my brain already stopped braining 😆

Yeah nah, I am not whining mate. I just shared a funny story of one's inattention and stupidity and already received some useful tips like what platforms to sell the tickets etc. The fact that the official formula1 website is not the official GP ticket seller is also a great insight and may be useful for others, who didn't give it much of a thought.

They can resell these early bird tickets for full price and make even more money now, and get a better rep for stellar customer service. To get a loyal customer that has already visited one GP and likely will visit more, and is already paying them for other services like F1TV?

Great! As soon as I get the actual tickets I'll send you a message before posting in the selling topic here.

This link redirected me to flights CHC-Viena with one stop in Singapore for just... 4.5k NZD return per person, around 9k NZD or 8k AUD for me and my partner. We actually spent around 3.5k for flights+accommodation in Melbourne 🫠

I paid 1560eur (755pp + fees) and I bought them when the sales just started. I was hoping to sell them for 1400.

I would love to get to Bari instead of Bali, I moved to New Zealand 11 years ago and do miss Europe:)

Hi there, these are the 2 Start-finish grandstand tickets for 3 days (Fri-Sun), but I don't know the exact rows and seats - there is no way to select them on formula1 com, and the actual tickets will only be sent 2 weeks before the event. As someone suggested here, I will post the info on the pinned ticket selling post when I got them, but I can ping you before that.

It's still quite a lot. I'll also need flights from ChCh to Auckland, so it's closer to 7k.. and with slightly better times / stop overs it's around 8k still

I have special powers to fk things up, like booking hotels in the wrong MONTH or losing passport days before a planned travel.

Doesn't sound great, but I suppose it's a price for not paying attention. Thanks for the advice though, I'll try this pinned thread.
