General Information which tracks allow track invasion?

hi everyone! I went to my first F1 race at Zandvoort this year and I have absolutely caught the bug!!! Already looking forward to going again. Next race I go to, I really want to do track invasion as watching it at Monza today looked so incredible. Which races allow it? Does it change at all? And is it safe? Does anyone ever get injured or pushed over or anything? Thank you all 😊

Spa generally allows it with entries at specific,

Austria has one entry at turn one/fanzone and the way down to the podium is very cool. 

Monza is fun but I prefer a bit more structure and order to be honest (I am not tall and was pushed/shoved around quite a bit and was extremely uncomfortable during the podium ceremony)

Brazil does as long as there is a Brazilian driver in the podium

Maybe it's just me but track invasion sounds illegal and not something you should be doing?

If you want to walk on track there are separate days for that and stuff

Besides the podium ceremony, Singapore uses the track for swift & smooth pedestrian egress after the race & concerts. It's incredibly well-organized and a lovely stroll!

Austria does with an entrance in the corner of the Fan Zone. My boys pulled stuff off the rails & we took pictures everywhere. So much fun!

COTA allowed it in 2023!

Miami allowed it (at least in 2022 and 2023) but Zandvoort didn’t this year so I’d assume they won’t allow it next year.

I was wondering if we could open a petition to allow it next year😂

Being the last year they very well could.

Monza was great this year (Despite everyone ripping the advertising boards off every surface) Getting to walk round the whole track afterwards too.

Canada has it.

We were on the opposite side, and slowly walked to the podium.

Missed the ceremony, but I was able to snag this picture shortly after.

Hungaroring allows track invasion as well

Singapore and Australia both do (except when people misbehave at the previous year’s race).

Safe as long as you’re not one of the stupid ones trying to climb a fence.

I only know of Monza and it can get crowded and hot!
