We have set out some very important terms for Formula One Grand Prix bookings. When you sign the Booking Form or accepting to pay a deposit for any of our services, you agree to these Booking Conditions. We act as an agent only. As your appointed travel, tour or ticket organizer we arrange travel, hotel bookings, tickets and other ground services on the client's behalf.

Booking: If you wish to book a ticket or travel package you must complete a booking form or confirm your order by internet, electronic mail or by phone. The person ordering tickets or other travel services must be a member of the travel party and must be over 18 years of age. By confirming an order with us, that person confirms that they are authorised by the other members of the party to accept the terms of these conditions. Upon receipt of your booking and a deposit payment, we will reserve your chosen services, if available at the time of receipt of the first deposit, and confirm the reservation to you in writing. As soon as a confirmation invoice is issued, a binding contract comes into existence. Your contract with us is subject to the law and jurisdiction of the courts of Bonn/Siegburg, Germany.

Important General Note:

Please check your confirmation invoice and all other documents thoroughly as soon as you receive them. You must advise us straight away if any details appear incorrect as it may not be possible to make amendments at a later date. Ticket holders are reminded and agree, accept and acknowledge that motor racing, Formula One, the events associated with the sport, and other activities offered by F1Corporate Ltd therewith (including without limitation support events) are dangerous and accidents can happen.

The Client hereby exclude, release and forever discharge F1Corporate Ltd / GPE GmbH, and all other persons involved in the organisation, conduct and promotion of the Event (Associated Entities) from all liability for claims, loss, damage, costs or expenses arising from any personal injury or death (whether arising from negligence (but excluding gross negligence) or otherwise), arising from or connected with Ticket holders' participation in Recreational Services at the Event.

If you or any member of your party suffers from a medical condition or disability which may affect their tour arrangements, full details of the disability or medical condition must be advised before/at the time of booking. If in our opinion a particular tour is not suitable for the disability/medical condition, then we reserve the right to refuse a booking at our discretion. In the event of the disability/medical condition not being made known to us before/at the time of booking, then we reserve the right to cancel the booking at any stage and cancellation charges will apply.

We reserve the right to cancel any booking for which payment of the balance is overdue more than 7 days. Cancellation charges will apply as per invoice.
