Ticket sales for the first race of the 2006-07 A1 Grand Prix season are exceeding all expectations, just five days after going on sale.

10,000 tickets were sold on the first day alone, as Dutch fans clamoured to get tickets for the race at Zandvoort on 1 October.

A1 Grand Prix will meet with management at the Zandvoort circuit and A1 Team Netherlands next week to discuss additional grandstand seating to meet the huge demand for the first race of the season.

Fans that have purchased general admission tickets will be offered an opportunity to upgrade to Grandstand tickets, when these become available on 17 April.

"The huge demand that we have experienced for tickets for this event is hardly surprising, with 25,000 tickets sold in the first five days," said A1 Grand Prix Chairman, Sheikh Maktoum.

"Throughout the first season of A1 Grand Prix, the Dutch fans have proved themselves to be the most passionate and loyal fans in the world. We hope to reward this by putting on a great show for them and will try our best to provide as many people as possible with a grandstand seat."
