With 600 million fans worldwide, including your Austin custom home builder, and the potential for 700,000 more in Austin alone, it’s no surprise that Formula 1 is the most popular motorsports on Earth. The opening of Circuit of the Americas in Austin, TX is causing a lot of hype in the area. Not only will it be home to the 2012 Formula 1 United States Grand Prix in November, but also an American Le Mans Series event, presented by Patrón, will be hosted by Circuit of the Americas in spring 2013. What better way to usher in both events than to bring Formula Expo to Austin, June 16th and 17th.

If you have not been exposed to the Formula 1 culture, Formula Expo will provide you with a fantastic opportunity to get the two of you acquainted. At Formula Expo, you will get up-close and personal with the fastest circuit racecars and the technology that drives them through various exhibits. You’ll even get hands on experience as you take a drive in the F1 simulators to see how the most talented drivers in the world feel when they get behind the wheel. If that doesn’t excite you about Formula 1 coming to America, and even more Austin, I don’t know what will!

You can purchase tickets online, $15 each or $50 for a family 4-pack for single day tickets. Two-day passes are available, too. This will give you a great reason to get out of your Austin custom homes and treat Dad to an exhilarating event on Father’s Day, too!
