AT THE CIRCUIT

To make sure you don't have any worries during the race weekend and can focus on what's happening on the track, we have some practical tips for you.

FOOD AND DRINK

You don't need to worry about starving during the race weekend. Almost every grandstand has a food zone with refreshments.

There are numerous options for purchasing food and beverages at the stands, including both permanent bars and newly introduced food trucks, each offering unique culinary concepts. Due to logistical constraints, not every stand will feature the full range of food available throughout the circuit. However, every stand will provide a variety of alternatives to cater to different tastes.

Visitors are permitted to bring only personal quantities of food and beverages, such as a single bottle, sandwich, piece of fruit, or snack. For safety reasons, authorities might require that bottles be brought in without caps. Numerous food and drink purchase points are available at the stands.

Alcohol is available exclusively at bars outside the designated perimeter. These bars, as defined by authorities, include those in the Fan Zone and the ones under the Main Grandstand.

COMMUNICATION

Before you head out on the circuit, make sure you have all the information you need to save on your phone, from tickets and maps to information about your favourite riders. Especially on Sundays, there is a risk that the network will be overloaded at the Algarve International Circuit, and you won't be able to load any data. Consider that you may not be able to reach your friends. If you want to meet anyone on Sunday, always arrange a time and place to meet ahead. Just like back in time when there were no cell phones.

NOISE

Remember that motorsport is very noisy. While the noise is tolerable in the normal grandstands, wear earplugs if you're closer to the track. If you're travelling with children, don't leave them without headphones.

WEATHER

In late March, Portimão usually enjoys mild weather, with daytime temperatures around 20°C (68°F) and nighttime lows near 12°C (54°F). The region may experience occasional showers and varying wind conditions. This period is ideal for outdoor activities and sightseeing, as the weather remains comfortable before the onset of the hotter summer months.
