2022 Formula E - Vancouver discussions
 

I'm surprised that a major motorsport event is actually taking place in Vancouver but I ain't complaining. Ever since Indy left, don't think there has been anything motorsports related happening around Vancouver.

Did anyone else grab tickets and which tickets? GS 11 here.

The track layout kinnda sucks. I guess they don't make extension cords long enough yet.

Got some GA tickets for Saturday. Since its the first year, I just want to see what the racing is all about in person. Didn't see anything on the Friday that made me want to buy a two day pass. Looking forward to it.

Got a 2 day pass In grandstand 2A.

looking at Saturday GA

no point getting GS if there’s no reviews

Bought GA Saturday. Prices were a little much for where I wanted to be given the unknown

Man really want to do F1 in Montreal next year though..

Looking forward to it! Can't say that I'm a big Formula E fan, but it's motorsports in Vancouver so I'll certainly give it a try.

Definitely my plans for 2022.

I haven’t gotten tickets yet. Formula-E is a very exciting series with good racing, but the track layout leaves a lot to be desired. Granted I saw it’s “temporary” so I assume next year with more time to plan it will be adjusted.

My wife didn’t want to go and my son would only be 2, don’t think he’d be willing to do GS for a weekend. Plus I got parts to buy so I didn’t get tickets yet

For anyone interested they occasionally broadcast the races on TSN

I'm going as well. Grandstand 2C row 30-something.

I've been to f1 in Montreal and of course molson indy many years ago I always bought general admission. This will be my first time being up in a grandstand with proper sightlines.

There was one year I had a friend who worked for the Canucks and so we watched the race from an empty corporate boardroom inside Rogers Arena. That was fun.

Never watched a formula E race in my life but as a life long racing fan, it was hard to stay away from this. There's no guarantees it will be back after 2022 (eg. Montreal's formula e debacle).

I've been a F1 fan for years, went to Montreal in 2012. My gearhead uncle took me to the first Molson in 1990, which is probably what got me into car racing.

My dad, on the other hand, a big fan of soccer (plays, refs, has Whitecaps seasons tickets, gets up at 5:00am to watch to watch english premier league) never really could give less of a shit about car racing.

This past weekend he was visiting and out of nowhere was like "Formula E is coming to Vancouver! We should get tickets!"

I didn't have the heart to tell him that I really don't give a shit about Formula E.

I really don't care about formula E, but as an event, this is going to be a ton of fun. It's just nice that something is actually happening in Vancouver other than a fucking marathon.

Yeah you're right, if I still lived on that side of the pond I'd probably go just for something to do.

Guys where are the refunds??? lol

I'm in the process of getting a chargeback through my cc - hopefully it'll go through.

I hope the organizers get absolutely flogged for this.

Vancouver Fyre Festival - still no refunds here

Just got charged back, they have 7 days to respond. Credit card issuers seems to not want to refund $630 tickets lol.

I’m going to start mine as well then good idea

I tried it through AMEX and got denied since there wasn't enough proof submitted.

They don’t have the internet at Amex?!

I’ve got a couple emails where an actual human replied saying it would be refunded by June I think so hopefully I can use those

I just submitted a chargeback. I should receive my refund in 5 days if they don't reply otherwise the claim could take up to 8 weeks. FailFish

I filed my chargeback yesterday as well
Hope for the best
