The crash between Alex Albon and Ollie Bearman in practice 1 of the 2024 Mexican Grand Prix was an event that reminded the Martínez family of the effort they made to buy tickets for the event. For a considerable sum, Raúl Martínez, along with his wife, two children, and two grandparents, purchased tickets for the exclusive paddock of the 2024 Mexican Grand Prix, located at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, the venue for one of the 24 races of the 2024 Formula 1 season.
"The experience we had with the food, access to the pits, and the opportunity to meet the drivers," Raúl stated, made the purchase of tickets for the Grand Prix paddock an exciting decision, fueled by their passion for Formula 1. Last year they enjoyed it so much that they decided to return this year, making the visit to the paddock an almost obligatory tradition.
From their passion for Formula 1, Raúl and his family are eagerly awaiting their appointment at the paddock of the Mexican Grand Prix. Although the members of the Martínez family have different predictions on who will win the race, they are all excited to witness the event. While Nayeli Amador has her bets on other drivers, the majority support the 'Checomanía', led by Red Bull driver, 'Checo' Pérez.
The cost of tickets for the Mexican Grand Prix in 2024 varies considerably. While the organizers sold tickets starting at 3,700 pesos for the three days of the event, in the resale market, prices can exceed 40,000 pesos for the same type of tickets. Despite measures taken against resale, some resellers offer electronic ticket transfers for the greater security of buyers.
Raúl Martínez reveals that the total of six tickets for the paddock of the Mexican Grand Prix cost them a total of 54,000 dollars, equivalent to one million 78,920 pesos at the prevailing exchange rate at that time. Each paddock ticket cost Raúl around 9,000 dollars, excluding additional expenses the family plans to incur on souvenirs to demonstrate their passion for Formula 1.
With their expectations set on the race, the Martínez family is getting ready to enjoy the food, atmosphere, drinks, and the excitement of being in the paddock, experiencing something truly unique.
