The staff not well trained to handle large crowds during the F1 season. Ended up in the queue for 2 hours. An example of how clueless when it comes to the interpretation of the security policies is "Water bottles and soft drink cans that are sold inside cannot be taken to the stands"..

a few days at the track but wished I was driving! The traffic getting there on race day was horrendous so leave in good time. Security was tight but reassuring. There was a good amount of shade. Polite and generally helpful staff.

Not up to the standard of circuits elsewhere. Biggest let down was no beer. You could get a beer, but only if you paid out $120 to enter the Gulf Air tent, then you had to buy the beer on top of the entry fee. Race was OK, but the facilities were a big let down!

I attended the Grand Prix last month and it was a wonderful experience. Our seat in the Stand had views of the first corner, two straights and a sharp left hander.

It was amazing F1 experience they paid a lot of money to get this success ,I highly recommend it ,Try the view from Sakher stage and enjoy the shows there ,An umbrella is recommended

Was here for the 3 days of the Formula 1 GP weekend (April 2013). Everything was positive about it from my point of view with the exception of the security. Great racing circuit (we were in grandstand at Turn 1) and the organisers did well to offer a range of other entertainments when nothing car-like was on track. I never... More

We went to see the circuit on Saturday the 27th of April, unfortunately there was no events and they were still unwinding from the "F1 race last week". But the staff at the welcome centre was very welcomming and told us all about the circuit and activities. We were allowed to take pictures and even go to see the Grand... More
