Gran Premio De España 2012: 29 April
As the opening European event of the MotoGP season, Jerez is always an exciting GP! Who can forget Rossi's pipping of Gibernau at the last turn in 2005, setting the tone for the entire year, or Rossi's dramatic fall at turn one lap one, setting his own pace for the 2006 season! Rossi's domination of the 2007 race lulled us into a false sense of security that Casey quickly shattered at the next race in Istanbul. Dani put himself in contention for the championship with a win here in 2008, but stalked by the master on his Yamaha, Valentino in 2009. 2010 raised the first real question marks about the Rossi/Ducati team. This is also the official MotoGP test circuit -- stick around Monday for one of the most important tests of the year. This race does for the season what the Declaration of Independence did for American politics!
Jerez is also one of the biggest events of the year, with crowds topping 200,000 for the weekend. And when you aren't at the GP, you really want to sample its famous local products and generally take in the always fine weather as a relief to winter blues! Jerez circuit is a notorious traffic black hole. It is not easy to get there and back from the city of Jerez, and if you don't already have your accommodation, be warned that the city sells out of hotel rooms very quickly! We are happy to sell you just tickets to the event, but if you want to relax and focus all your attention on appreciating the action and drinking the beer, put yourself in our experienced hands. As one of our bigger events, we have three packages on offer taking care of you for the entire weekend. We have a new Classic package based in the centre of Jerez offering 3 nights bed and breakfast; and of course our track transfers and expert Spanish speaking guide on hand. Our 'Superior' package is based in a top 4* hotel in Jerez, mostly booked out by teams; with 3 (or more) nights B&B, guide and transfers. Rating as one of our favourite hotels on the planet, our 5* hotel in Jerez is our base for our exclusive Deluxe package; the package includes a Sunday evening vintage Sherry tasting and our VIP guide. Do this one with the superb VIP Village for the top experience. The weekend opens with a party at a spectacular sherry bodega and features a special guest from the paddock. This is a great way to kick off the season! We of course take you there and back (included in all packages) We have Spanish-speaking guides who are on hand for you 24 hours; and of course our collectable 'Jerez' branded merchandise, and our hand-selected grandstands all ensure you will have a weekend to remember!
