Formula One™ has appointed industry-leading hospitality company QuintEvents to market and fulfill the Official program, which encompasses 16 races in 16 countries on four continents.  All Formula One Paddock Club™ ticket and hospitality packages come direct from Formula One™ with QuintEvents as a "Formula One Paddock Club™ Authorised Distributor."  

The customizable race weekend packages start at $3,450 per person and include weekend-long activities culminating with the Sunday race.

Formula One Paddock Club™ facilities can accommodate small or large corporate groups in private or semi-private suites and general hospitality areas for individuals or social groups.
