In reply to CJ. Let me try and find out more about the autograph session. It's generally held on the track in front of the pits on Thursday afternoon, but I don't know how to get access. Definitely don't buy that ticket for $440!

In reply to Editor. I saw on several (Chinese) ticket vendor sites that a separate ticket is needed for the thursday autograph session. And not accessible with a regular 3-day Grandstand ticket. Is that correct? The ticket (just for the thursday autograph session was in access of $440...…)

In reply to Andrew McNamara. Not too sure, sorry Andrew. Though I can't imagine they will not let you take in baby supplies. Good luck

Any idea what bag search policies are? We are taking a baby and need food and stuff for him.

In reply to Christian Furze.

You should be fine with your camera, but the lens shouldn’t be larger than 400mm – just in case. There is an Autograph session on Thursday afternoon from 16:00-17:00 – this normally takes place on the Main Straight, rather than the Pit Lane.

Hi Andy, do you know if cameras are allowed in the circuit and also if there is any pit walks over the weekend?

Thank you for all the great information and helpful tips, Andrew! This will be my first GP in Shanghai and I am very excited! I do not know why Andy, who left the comments a year ago is so upset. I paid a lot of money for a 3-day Grand stand ticket and other extras, like pit lane walk, drive around the track, etc. I would not be happy if all this was available for free on Friday to any ticket holder. F1 is expensive, this is why this is my only second live race, because I want to get a prime experience, so I pay more for a better ticket.

Hi
The driver Meeting on Thursday is NOT for three days ticket holders…only 200 dedicated winners got the oppurtunity to get in with this Special ticket. Very strict controls :/

No acces to f1 village or eben Main grandstand to watch into the pits…
