The Formula one circus arrives in Jerez. Our readers will be glad to hear that Jerez will once again be hosting a pre-season testing session on the weekend of 10th to the 13th February 2011 at the Circuito de Jerez. Although many are counting down to the season-opening Bahrain GP in March, there's plenty going on in the world of F1 before we hit the desert.

McLaren's new car will be launched on 4th February in Berlin ahead of a track debut in the second pre-season test at Jerez. McLaren has revealed Lewis Hamilton will be at the wheel of their 2011 car when it makes its track debut at Jerez on February 10. Hamilton will sample the MP4-26 on the first day of the test before handing the car over to team mate Jenson Button for the second day of running at the Spanish circuit.
Spain is probably the warmest European country, so it makes sense testing in Jerez Race Track. Plus Spain is fun!

As usual the testing sessions are open to the public and are a great opportunity to grab a slice of F1 action at a fraction of the normal cost. Entrance is 10 euros for general entrance or 20 euros for a VIP ticket which gives you access to the stand by the pits. Children between the age of 3 and 14 years pay half price.

Tickets must be obtained at the circuit box office on the day of testing (tickets cannot be purchased in advance). The box office is open from 8 am; testing takes place from 9 am to 5 pm with public admittance from 10 am to 5 pm. For more information, visit www.circuitodejerez.com

If you are planning to be in the area for the 4 days Pre-Season Testing, enjoy our special "February Favourite Package" at Arcos Gardens and don't miss the opportinity to see the big F1 teams up close. It only takes 15 minutes to drive from Arcos Gardens!
