A pre-Grand Prix adventure

Sailing around the Mediterranean in the height of spring, the lucky winner and a friend will get to experience both the Italian and French Rivieras, as well as Naples, Sicily and the sun-drenched archipelago of Malta.

The ship will make stops in glamorous Marseilles, situated on the azure waters of the Cote d’Azur, and Genoa, just a short drive from the gelato-hued outcrops of Cinque Terre. A foodie stop in Naples also features on the itinerary, before the ship heads to Messina on

Sicily’s northeast coast, a historic harbour city filled with gothic architecture. Before sailing to Barcelona for the start of a Grand Prix adventure, the winner will also get to spend a day in Valletta, Malta’s medieval walled capital with a maze of cafe-lined cobbled streets, twisting spires and breathtaking domes.

While the cruise may end in sunny Barcelona, the prize is far from over. The winner will then spend three nights in a four-star Barcelona hotel – with breakfast included. After enjoying a full day exploring the city, its winding Gothic Quarter, bustling La Ramblas and gastronomic markets, the real fun begins.

The prize includes tickets to both the Spanish Grand Prix Qualifying Day on 9 May and the thrilling race day on 10 May, days filled with excitement and adrenalin. Watch your favourite sporting stars like Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel whizz round the track at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, before heading into the city to enjoy tapas and its intoxicating atmosphere.

On board a super ship

Not only will the cruise take you to glorious bucket-list Mediterranean destinations, but it will also take place on one of the hottest ships to launch in 2019, MSC Grandiosa. Carrying 6,297 passengers, the sparkling new super ship feels like a floating palace, housing a grand illuminated promenade, serene spa, stunning independent boutiques and world-class drinking, dining and entertainment options.

All included in the prize, the winner and their guest will enjoy free tickets to a Cirque du Soleil at Sea show, along with a cocktail, and the chance to watch Broadway-style shows at the ship’s impressive theatre.

There’s even the opportunity to work off some of the Mediterranean’s foodie delights at the ship’s state-of-the-art fitness centre, or to use one of the ship’s very own F1 simulators.

What you’ll get

Departing on 1 May 2020, the prize includes an all-inclusive cruise for two people sharing an inside cabin on MSC Grandiosa. The winners will get tickets to a Cirque du Soleil at Sea show, use of the gym and pool, gratuities, all port taxes and fees and entry to Broadway-style shows.
