Formula One Racing – VIP Level – And Bulgari Hotels!
Formula One Racing – VIP Level
What does that even mean?
This is soooo far beyond here’s a hot dog and a beer, and there’s your seat!
How about touring the actual race track, getting driven ON the racetrack, to get an idea of what the racers see.
How about going INTO the garage, behind the ropes, close enough to touch the actual race cars, maybe run ing into the guys who MAKE the cars?
How about TOUCHING the championship trophy, getting your picture taken with it?
How about having VIP Clubhouse/paddock access to any of the remaining races – your own hospitality suite experience, with food and drinks, over top of pit row?
How about WALKING down pit row, seeing who is there, getting a photo with a driver? no promises, but yeah.
How about hanging out in the most VIP section at a Formula One race, brushing up against celebrities, businessmen, dignitaries, even former presidents sometimes?
How about doing it with your buddies, for the trip of a lifetime that brings a grin to your face decades later?
Lastly, depending on WHERE the race is held, how about pairing the race 3-4 day weekend up with as much time before, after or both – at a Bulgari Hotel, with as much luxury, grace and sophistication as you can find ANYWHERE?
I’m looking at the Formula One calendar, pairing it up with great Bulgari Hotels, which just happen to be in some of the same cities as the races.
Of course we can still pair you up with a great 5 star hotel at any other race, as well.
How about a car and driver for the whole time you are here, to take you and your group to every race day, every race party, every event, and back to the best hotel in the city?
I’m looking at the F1 schedule, here is what is coming up:
This is 2024:
A few races have already passed, try next year!
