Wednesday May 12 Departure from Heathrow will be on the 13.55 British Airways flight BA354 to Nice where a coach will be waiting to transfer you along the coast to Monte Carlo. Accommodation has been reserved on room and breakfast basis at the famous Fairmont Hotel (formerly Hotel Loews), adjacent to the track, where you will enjoy unrivalled luxury and level of service. The Fairmont earns its coveted “de luxe’’ rating with a superb catalogue of facilities including its own casino, gourmet restaurants and chic bars. Click here for a photographic tour.

May 13 to 16 Four days at leisure in the world’s most glamorous town. The on-track action begins on Thursday with the first F1 sessions and support events. Friday is a rest day for the drivers but hostilities are resumed on Saturday with F1 qualifying plus the prestigious support races. The crowds pour into Monte Carlo on Sunday for the Grand Prix but, being literally on top of the circuit, you can take things easy until you are ready to stroll to your vantage point.The roof garden of the Fairmont overlooks the Old Station Hairpin, an excellent vantage point for race or qualifying. When not at the track you can soak up the sun beside the roof-top pool or explore some of Europe’s most exclusive shops. Your evenings - and early mornings! - are sure to be fun with a profusion of restaurants, the casino, and a harbour full of floating parties to keep you from your bed.

Monday May 17 After a leisurely morning you will be taken along the coast to Nice for the 15.25 flight BA345 to Heathrow. Alternative flights may be available.

TOUR MC1 – Extra Night Free of Charge
Stay one extra night and fly home on Tuesday at no additional charge.

A major development of the circuit since 2004 has seen the pits “reversed” so they face towards the harbour. This has considerably enhanced the view from Stand L and Stand T (the Upper Rows of which have a good view across the track to the pits).This year all tickets are available on a “day to day” basis. If you buy Saturday & Sunday grandstand tickets in the same price category we will supply, on request, a similar Thursday ticket free of charge (subject to availability). Admission is free on Friday when holders of a Saturday or Sunday ticket are likely to be offered a free pitwalk. Secteur Rocher tickets give access to the Rock of Monaco overlooking the harbour. Although set back from the track, it is possible to view a good percentage of the circuit from this elevated, but often crowded, standing area. Z1 is an alternative standing area. All grandstands are numbered and uncovered. Stands B, K, L, M, O, T & V have a view of a giant screen. We anticipate another screen will be erected for spectators in Secteur Rocher. Our seats in Stand K, L & O are not in the lower (cheaper) rows.

VENEZIA CAFE:
Extremely close to the action at the end of the pit straight the Venezia Cafe has long been an MRI favourite. This special package includes buffet lunch (drinks extra) and a numbered seat in the small private grandstand.
