WEC race week is here and fans to get unparalleled access with unique Open Paddock Experience at BIC

Race week has arrived for the 2024 WEC 8 Hours of Bahrain, powered by Bapco Energies and Bahrain International Circuit (BIC) is all geared up to host the Spirit of Le Mans featuring the very best of endurance motorsport.

The highly anticipated event is scheduled for this Friday and Saturday (1 and 2 November) at ‘The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East’. It will be the final round of this year’s hotly contested World Endurance Championship (WEC) season, and BIC will be crowning the series’ newest champions.

Fans attending the two-day racing spectacle will be able to enjoy unparalleled access to the heart of the WEC with BIC’s Open Paddock Experience.

The Open Paddock is unique to the WEC weekend, and it is an initiative that must be taken advantage of in an Federation Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA)-sanctioned world championship event.

Aside from getting to watch the high-octane action from BIC’s grandstands, race-goers will have the chance to go and see what goes on behind the scenes in the WEC Paddock. This is where the participating teams’ buildings are located to accommodate the series’ star drivers and team members while at the circuit.

The Paddock is also from where the teams have direct access to their garages, so fans will more than likely bump into the WEC’s biggest talents as they make their way around the facility and also witness team preparations for the racing action.

Fans wishing to attend this year’s WEC 8 Hours of Bahrain, powered by Bapco Energies can purchase their grandstand tickets for the weekend at just BD5.5 for adults and BD2.75 for children for the two days. Tickets can be bought online at bahraingp.com or by calling the BIC Hotline on +973-17450000.

All tickets sold for this year’s WEC 8 Hours of Bahrain, powered by Bapco Energies will help make a positive environmental impact in the Kingdom, as BIC and Bapco Energies are bringing back their ground-breaking Green Ticket Initiative, which will greatly contribute to achieving the national target of quadrupling mangrove coverage across Bahrain by 2035.

The WEC 8 Hours of Bahrain, powered by Bapco Energies will feature a packed field of more than 30 cars on track in WEC action. These ultra-quick racing machines feature motoring’s biggest international brands, and they will be lighting up BIC’s 5.412-kilometre track for an experience like no other.

The top-tier Hypercar class and the lower-rung LMGT3 category is set to feature well-known drivers in the calibre of former Formula 1 World Champion Jenson Button, grand prix-winner Robert Kubica, MotoGP legend Valentino Rossi, and Formula E champions Sebastien Buemi, Jean-Eric Vergne, Nyck de Vries, and Stoffel Vandoorne.

The WEC action will be supported by the Porsche Carrera Cup Middle East (PCCME), which will be holding the first round of its 2024/2025 campaign.

Aside from the racing, there will be plenty of off-track entertainment for the whole family to enjoy on both days of WEC weekend.

BIC has brought back the Giant Ferris Wheel, while there will also be racing simulators, reaction games used by professional racing drivers, and a fantastic classic car show.

For the youngsters, BIC has lined up plenty of attractions, headlined by the ‘Space Jam: A New Legacy’ Experience, which celebrates the Warner Bros Pictures live-action film of the same name. Visitors will have the chance to meet members of the Tune Squad, with Bugs Bunny and Lola Bunny greeting fans at the experience! There will also be kids’ stage shows, LED bumper cars, carnival rides, mini-train rides, a jumping castle, a balloon twister, a live graffiti wall, face painting, and the like.

All those attending will similarly be able to interact with BIC’s army of roaming performers, including jugglers, stilt-walkers, face painters, street drummers, balloon mime acts, and musicians.
