SPEEDY69 1,284 Posted April 7, 2009 Hi Does anyone know if there is any way to buy tickets for Latvia from the UK other than via a bank transfer (£20 charge!)? If not, are tickest easily available at the track on the day or is this one usually sold out? I have flights and accommodation booked already but any help with this GP would be much appreciated. Thanks Karl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks Karl We did latvia gp last year and there is tickets for sale on the day but if you want to be in the grandstand by the start gate i would get them via transfer as was sold out last year and they use that stand for the main sponsers.

Paragon 8 Posted April 15, 2009 Tickets will be available soon through http://www.e-ticket.pl/, I have used my credit card with these before without a problem but other people have some problems in the past. you usually find the prices are a little higher than on the day but you can guarentee to have a good seat, and as I say I have never had a problem Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
