BIC, Sakhir – Winners in Bahrain International Circuit’s (BIC) Early Bird raffle have expressed their delight in coming away with fantastic prizes through the ongoing promotion. The Early Bird discounts offer a 15 per cent reduction on all tickets to the 2013 GULF AIR BAHRAIN GRAND PRIX, plus a chance to win valuable gifts each week plus a grand prize of a Mini Cooper JCW at the end of the promotion period. Weekly prizes include iPhones, iPads, return air tickets to Dubai and BIC Xperience packages, ensuring customers great value for money and providing a bonus attraction to the already unparalleled rates on ticket prices. “I’m very happy to have won a prize in the BIC raffle,” said Jeff Shull, who won the chance to enjoy a Dragster Xperience at BIC worth BD40. “The 15 per cent discount was a great incentive to go and get my tickets sooner rather than later; I was going to get them anyway since I’ve been looking forward to attending my first Bahrain Grand Prix this April, so I’m pleased I got them when I did especially after winning in the raffle.” Fahad Al Asmawi, who came away with a return air ticket to Dubai, added: “I was truly surprised to have won a prize in this weekly draw. I am very pleased and I wish that my good luck continues in the grand raffle for the brand new car. “I have been planning to buy my tickets for the Bahrain Grand Prix soon so that I can guarantee my seats, and thanks to this promotion I have also come away with a bonus air ticket.” Another set of winners will be announced in the upcoming third edition of the weekly draw to be held on Sunday, January 6, at BIC. All those who have taken advantage of the Early Bird discounts and already purchased their tickets to the 2013 GULF AIR BAHRAIN GRAND PRIX are entered for Sunday’s raffle. They are also automatically included in the grand draw, which offers a chance to win a brand new Mini Cooper JCW. Each of the raffle prizes have been provided by BIC and its official partners. The brand new Mini Cooper JCW is courtesy of Euro Motors, the iPhones and iPads are provided by Batelco, the return air ticket by Algosaibi Travel and the BIC Xperience packages by “The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East”. BIC’s Early Bird promotion offers the best value for money on tickets to next year’s GULF AIR BAHRAIN GRAND PRIX. Race fans from Bahrain and across the Gulf are being invited to take advantage of this fantastic offer and pick up their tickets as soon as possible. Apart from all the action out on track, the 2013 GULF AIR BAHRAIN GRAND PRIX will also feature plenty of other racing thrills plus non-stop off-the-track festivities. The race weekend, happening April 19-20-21, will be the hottest ticket in town and it is an event that must not be missed!
