MOTORSPORT – Bahrain International Circuit (BIC), ‘The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East’, announced yesterday an incredible way for fans to be able to attend Formula 1 pre-season testing, taking place in February next year.
All those who purchase their tickets to the Formula 1 Bahrain Grand Prix 2025 during BIC’s Early Bird promotion will get free access to the open days for spectators in F1 testing. Fans are urged to hurry as the Early Bird offer ends on December 7.
The pre-season tests are scheduled to be held from 26 to 28 February in Sakhir, bringing together all 10 F1 teams as they prepare for the 2025 FIA F1 World Championship.
The new season then kicks off just two weeks after testing with the Australian Grand Prix from March 14 to 16. The action will continue with races in China and Japan before returning to Bahrain for the fourth event of the 24-round championship – the F1 Bahrain Grand Prix – scheduled for April 11 to 13. It will be the first race of the season to take place in the Middle East.
BIC’s Early Bird discount is currently offering up to 10 per cent off on ticket prices to next year’s sporting and entertainment spectacle.
Fans will need to act fast and buy their tickets to be able to take advantage of this deal for F1 testing access – while enjoying rates for an F1 event that cannot be beaten – as the Early Bird only runs until December 7. All those who have already bought their tickets and those who will be buying their tickets under the Early Bird promotion are covered in this fantastic offer to attend the tests.

The Early Bird discount covers all ticket options across the circuit’s grandstands. The 10 per cent reduction is available for tickets to the Main Grandstand and Turn One Grandstand, while a five per cent discount is on offer for the Beyon Grandstand, University Grandstand, and Victory Grandstand.
BIC’s Main Grandstand and Turn One Grandstand are two of the premier locations from where fans can experience the most exciting action of the race weekend. The ticket prices are amongst the most affordable in the world for such seats, giving race-goers the best value for money to be a part of one of the most sought-after events in all of F1.
