- Cas van de Kleut
On Friday, ticket sales for the Formula 1 event ahead of the upcoming season went on sale. The process has been criticised by fans on social media.
People reportedly queued for hours to get a ticket, to no avail. Meanwhile, tickets are available on several ticket websites, but at significantly. People are, therefore, upset. This has been a reoccurring issue in the United Kingdom over recent weeks. There was a lot of furious music fans who couldn't get a ticket for the Oasis concerts.

So whilst I'm still queuing and not getting very far. Tickets are already up for resale and at silly prices! It's extortionate and makes F1 just get further and further away from a lot of F1 fans. #F175 #F175LIVE #F1 pic.twitter.com/uDOFwrk2aY

Ridiculous trying to get tickets to F1 75 live... after waiting over an hour in the queue to get to the site, "no tickets available". @TheO2 @AXS_UK

YET ... already at re-sale sites you can pick them up for over £1,000 (and there are plenty of them).

Waste of time that was! Tried to get tickets for the @F1 2025 live launch event, immediately joined the queue/waiting room the second it opened, sat there for 90 minutes, finally get to the ticket booking & immediately get the "No tickets available" message. Totally Kick Sauber! pic.twitter.com/GSO3wWr2pa

Yet another farce when trying to get tickets…F1 75 Live - wasted an 1.5hrs in the queue (was in the waiting room for half hour before the queue went live) and completely sold out. There HAS to be a better way for event tickets… what’s the point in trying anymore?! #F175 #Awful pic.twitter.com/xZqYuu7lh1
