What is a grid pass?
At the 2023 Formula 1 Lenovo United States Grand Prix, Williams Racing and Kraken have introduced the GRID Pass, an all-access digital collectible that gives passholders exclusive privileges. At the 2023 Formula 1 Lenovo United States Grand Prix, passholders competed to have their digital collectibles featured on the rear wing of Williams Racing’s F1 car during the live race for the world to see.
Leading up to the race, the community was activated through dozens of digital collection fandoms and over 1,000 individual submissions. After narrowing down the contenders, tens of thousands of votes were cast to select the winner.
Last year, Kraken hosted several Williams Racing Fan Zones, where fans who signed up for the Williams Racing Collectibles+ program used their Grid Pass to gain exclusive access to merchandise discounts, driver meetings and more.
