By placing an order for and/or completing a Purchase with us, you agree to these Terms and Conditions of sale and the Ticket Issuer’s terms and conditions, and you and any person on whose behalf you are purchasing a Ticket will be deemed to have read and accepted these Terms and Conditions and the Ticket Issuer’s terms and conditions. You agree that by using the Ticket you are entering into a separate contract with the Ticket Issuer that imposes additional obligations on you with respect to the Ticket Issuer.
1. Customers.

(b) You confirm that any information you provide to us shall be true and accurate to the best of your knowledge and belief;

(e) Both parties agree that neither shall have any claim for innocent or negligent misrepresentation based on any statement in these Terms and Conditions.
2. Contract.
No legally binding contract between us in respect of the Purchase (“Contract”) shall be formed unless and until you receive the confirmation receipt of an order placed by you, in writing. We shall not be liable to sell or provide any Tickets to you prior to the Contract being formed. No variation to these Terms and Conditions shall be binding unless agreed in writing between your authorised representative and us. We reserve the right to amend these Terms and Conditions from time to time and will notify you of any such changes. You shall be deemed to have accepted the changes if you do not notify us within 7 days of being notified of such changes. If you object to such change and provide us with written notice within 7 days’ of being notified of such changes, these Terms and Conditions shall continue in force unamended by such changes.
3. Tickets.
You agree to pay the price of the Tickets as quoted on the confirmation receipt of your order, subject to availability. Prices for our Tickets may change from time to time, and in the event of any such change in Ticket price from the Ticket Issuer, we shall be entitled to pass such changes on to you and you agree to pay the increased Ticket price. The price that you will be charged for a Ticket shall include VAT or the local equivalent (sales tax) where applicable at the applicable rate. However, if the rate of the applicable sales tax changes between the date of your order and the date of delivery, we will adjust the sales tax that you pay, unless you have already paid for the Tickets in full before the change in sales tax takes effect.
4. Ticket Limitations.
Tickets that are not collected or used will not be refunded, and no duplicate Tickets will be provided for lost, stolen or damaged Tickets. Tickets must be checked immediately on receipt as we will not be able to assist with any issues raised after 7 days of receipt. We reserve the right not to sell Tickets to any person who is either directly or indirectly associated with any of our Formula One competitors. If a Ticket has been issued to a named individual, it may only be used by that individual. Tickets are for the sole use of the person purchasing them and their guests and may not be used for any competition, prize draw, and consumer or trade promotion or similar. Tickets may not be re-sold or transferred without our prior written approval. You acknowledge that a Ticket does not include any travel or accommodation and such arrangements must be booked independently of the Ticket. It is your responsibility to check any Booking Form and confirmation receipt and to notify us within 7 days of receipt of any error contained therein. We shall have no liability to you in the event of any error on a Booking Form and shall not be obliged to refund or replace any Ticket which contains an error which derives from the relevant Booking Form. For the avoidance of doubt, the lead booker shall provide us with the complete guest list at least 7 days prior to the start of the relevant race weekend. We reserve the right to cancel any Tickets in the event that you breach any of these Terms and Conditions and shall not be obliged to provide you with a refund in such circumstances.

If we dispatch the Tickets, they shall be sent by a postal service requiring signature on receipt. A signature provided at your nominated delivery address shall be conclusive evidence that you have received the Tickets, and no duplicate Tickets shall be provided after this. We reserve the right to charge you for any delivery charges we may incur in delivering the tickets in case of any change of address and/or any other reason resulting in additional cost to us.
6. Contractual Entitlement Tickets.
You are not entitled to cancel your relevant Contractual Entitlement Tickets once you have received the confirmation receipt and in case of a no show, such Tickets shall be deemed to have been used and shall result in the loss of those Contractual Entitlement Tickets.
