How is the Mexico City E-Prix different from the F1 Grand Prix?
Both races share the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, but the E-Prix runs a shorter, roughly 2.6 km configuration built around the stadium’s Foro Sol section, with a chicane removed in recent editions to speed up racing. It’s also a lighter trip to plan: one ticketed race day on Saturday afternoon, preceded by Friday practice and knockout-style qualifying, instead of the Grand Prix’s three-day schedule. January in Mexico City is also cooler and drier than the Grand Prix’s late-October date, and E-Prix tickets have historically cost a fraction of Grand Prix prices, with a fan-festival atmosphere that has included live music acts in past editions.
How much do Mexico City E-Prix tickets cost?
Official 2027 pricing had not been announced as of September 2026. For the most recently completed edition, in January 2026, tickets ranged from about $335 MXN for Foro Sol Norte/Sur sections to around $640 MXN for Grada and Platino Plus seating and $3,355 MXN for Box Oro, with early-bird pricing available for a short window after tickets went on sale. Tickets are typically sold through Ticketmaster, with details posted at fiaformulae.com closer to the event.
Where to stay and how to get to the E-Prix
Because the E-Prix uses the same venue as the Grand Prix, the neighborhoods and transit options in our where-to-stay guide and getting-to-the-track guide apply here too: Roma, Condesa and Polanco all sit within reach of Metro Line 9. The E-Prix draws a smaller crowd than the Grand Prix, so hotel availability and pricing in mid-January are typically easier than during the late-October Grand Prix weekend.
