Barcelona's gain is Imola's loss, as the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix has been discontinued after its contract wasn't renewed.
How to get F1 Grand Prix 2026 tickets
Fans can purchase F1 Grand Prix tickets via several routes. They are offered by the Formula One Ticket Portal, which can be accessed directly through the sport’s official site and they are also available via the circuit/venue sites themselves.
As well as general admission and grandstand tickets, fans can also purchase numerous VIP or hospitality packages.
In addition, F1 fans may also wish to consider secondary sites such as StubHub, which could give them the best opportunity of obtaining tickets.
How much are F1 Grand Prix 2026 tickets?
F1 ticket prices vary significantly by circuit, location, and the level of access you choose.
Tickets are generally available in the following categories:
- General Admission (GA): The most budget-friendly option, ranging from CNY 400 (£43/$57) at the Chinese Grand Prix to over £325 ($430) at the British Grand Prix. These tickets do not include a reserved seat.
- Grandstand Seating: Reserved seating typically starts around JPY 22,500 (£106) at affordable tracks like Suzuka and can exceed €875 (£755) for premium views at the Monaco Grand Prix.
- Main Grandstand / Pit Straight: These premium seats offer views of the start/finish line and pit lane, with prices averaging around £700 ($940)
- Paddock Club & Hospitality: VIP packages, which offer all-inclusive catering and exclusive pit lane access, usually start from around £4000 ($5375).
North American and prestigious European events tend to be the most expensive on the F1 calendar. At the other end of the pricing scale, races in the Far East and South America (China, Japan and Brazil) rank amongst the least expensive during the season.

What to expect from the F1 2026 season?
We witnessed one of the most thrilling and dramatic F1 seasons ever last year. After dominating for lengthy periods, the McLaren duo of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri were pushed to the limit by a resurgent Max Verstappen, as the season ended on a thrilling high.
Lando Norris would hold his nerve of course in the final Grand Prix of the campaign in Abu Dhabi, finishing third to claim his first F1 drivers’ crown. He now attempts to become the first British driver to successfully defend the title, after a maiden championship triumph.
What a difference a few months makes though in the world of Formula 1. All three title challengers from last year have failed to podium in either of the opening two races of 2026, with none of them even finishing the Chinese Grand Prix.
As expected from their performances in pre-season testing, Mercedes are the current stars of the show. George Russell claimed pole and the race win in Australia and his 19-year-old Italian sidekick, Kimi Antonelli, took the honours in China.
Ferrari fans also have smiles on their faces. The prancing horses look to have improved from last year or are dealing with the new rules and regulations better than others. They finished 3rd and 4th in both of the opening two races, with Charles Leclerc podiuming in Melbourne and Lewis Hamilton taking bronze in Shanghai.
