Tickets sold out for MotoGP’s Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca officials announced last Friday that tickets for Saturday, July 9th and Sunday, July 10th of the Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix are no longer available for purchase through the circuit’s ticket office. A very limited number of general admission tickets will be available for sale at the official 2005 Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix ticket outlets while their supplies last. Approximately 53,900 tickets have been sold to spectators for each of the weekend days. General admission tickets are still available for the practice day on Friday, July 8th, the first opportunity for two-wheeled fans to see the MotoGP World Championship in its first appearance in the United States since 1994. “With almost 150,000 people expected to be here, next week’s Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix will be the largest event in the 49-year history of Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca,” said Gill Campbell, CEO/general manager of the historic track. “The combination of MotoGP, Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca and the Monterey Peninsula has proven irresistible. Our phones have barely stopped ringing since we announced the event last August.” Only once before has a sellout been announced at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. That was the 1998 Rolex Monterey Historic Automobile Races with Porsche as the event’s featured marque. That announcement was not made, however, until after a large walk-up crowd on Sunday of the event. Next weekend’s Red Bull U.S. Grand Prix marks the first time a sellout announcement has been made prior to the event weekend in the 49-year history of the world-renowned circuit.
