Metro Line 11
The official guide strongly recommended Shanghai Circuit Station on Line 11, next to the venue at No. 2000 Yining Road. Crowd and station queue controls still require return-time margin.
Stand-to-gate match
Entrance 1 served A, B and K; Entrance 2 served B and C; Entrance 6 served E; Entrance 9 served F, H and J. Choosing a metro exit and arrival route around the ticket reduced perimeter walking.
Grandstand E shuttle
A free round trip linked P5 near J with P13 near E. The 2026 archive published P5→P13 from 08:30–15:00 and P13→P5 from 09:30–15:00, with boarding outside the ticketed gates.
Road controls
On 14–15 March, restrictions were published for 07:30–18:30 across Baiyin, Yining, Anchen, Anxiao and East Yuanguo approaches. Vehicles without an F1 permit and non-motorized traffic could not enter the controlled roads.
Parking
All official F1 lots required a matching permit. Drivers without one were directed to public/designated areas outside the restriction or commercial parking near Line 11 stations.
Ride-hailing
The official drop-off and pickup points were Baiyin Road at Linze Road and Donghuan Road at Yining Road. Other restricted-area pickups were prohibited.
Re-entry and identity
Same-day re-entry was permitted through designated entrances after repeating entry procedures. The original purchase ID and, for passport holders, manual verification were central to the trip plan.
