Endurance round
The longest day of the Lusail year. One race runs deep into the night, which means a single ticket buys you daylight, dusk and floodlights in one sitting. The quietest of the three weekends, and the easiest to get a good seat at short notice.

Tickets
Category and price detail for this weekend is not published yet.
The circuit has not published a ticket breakdown for this weekend. As soon as it does, the categories and prices go here with the date they were checked, the same as every other page on this site. In the meantime the official portal is the only seller worth trusting for a primary ticket.
Grandstand descriptions on the grandstands page apply to every event at this circuit, because the stands do not move.
Where to stay
Book the room before the ticket. For this weekend that order matters more than which seat you end up in.
| Area | Why it works | To the circuit | Rooms |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lusail Marina | Closest to the gates, and the shortest run home after a night session. The full case for it → | 15 min by road estimated, outside race traffic | Find rooms (opens Booking.com in a new tab) |
| West Bay | Most rooms, most restaurants, and a metro connection north. The full case for it → | 25 min by road estimated, outside race traffic | Find rooms (opens Booking.com in a new tab) |
| The Pearl | Serviced apartments. Usually the better maths for four people. The full case for it → | 20 min by road estimated, outside race traffic | Find rooms (opens Booking.com in a new tab) |
| Msheireb and old Doha | For the days you are not at the circuit. The full case for it → | 30 min by road estimated, outside race traffic | Find rooms (opens Booking.com in a new tab) |
| Near the airport | The cheapest rooms and the longest transfer. The full case for it → | 40 min by road estimated, outside race traffic | Find rooms (opens Booking.com in a new tab) |
Driving times are taken from map distance rather than measured by us. On race day every one of them is longer, in the same direction, for everybody. How to actually get there is a page of its own.
