Albert Park Circuit

Grandstand: FANGIO

The biggest grandstand on track, the Fangio Grandstand is perched right on the grid meaning you won’t miss a second of the pre-race action. Depending exactly where your seats are will mean which team’s pit box you will have the best view of the weekend, but rest assured you will be able to see the whole pit-lane from your seats. As spectators are allowed on track for the post race celebrations, sitting in the Fangio stand ensures you will be in the best spot to either enter the track and watch the podium, or witness the champagne-spraying from your seats themselves. The Fangio stand is in the main section of grandstands on the circuit, meaning all amenities are always close by.

Grandstand: MOSS

Just past the pit building is the Moss Grandstand, where you will enjoy views of the pre-race buildup on the grid, the podium and the all-important run into turn 1. One of the four slated DRS zones at Albert Park, turn 1 is where a large amount of the on-track action and overtaking happens. With multiple giant screens spread across the start/finish straight, you will never miss a moment of the action – and being a street circuit – you feel right on top of the cars from your seats along this section of track. There are plenty of food and drink options directly behind the stands on the main straight.

Grandstand: JONES

Along with the Brabham Grandstand, the Jones Grandstand at Turns 1 and 2 is one of the most highly sought-after tickets. Sitting just on the outside of corner entry, the Jones stand is arguably the place where the spectators will see the most action. Here you will witness cars race wheel-to-wheel at one of the most common overtaking spots on the track, cars exit pit lane into turn 1 and the all-important first lap. At the end of the straight, you will also have easy access to enter the track to witness the podium celebrations.

Grandstand: BRABHAM

Opposite the Jones grandstand on the inside of the circuit, the Brabham stand also provides excellent views of the opening two corners. You will have many photo opportunities, such as the cars side-by-side through Turns 1 and 2 as well as slow speed close-ups of the cars flicking through the corners. You will also have a great position to see the cars accelerate out of turn 2 and into the short straight and second DRS zone. Just to the stand’s right is the highly popular general admission hill where the atmosphere all weekend long is electric. On the inside of the circuit, you will also have a chance to explore and walk around the Albert Park lake between sessions.

Grandstand: HILL

Further along the first sector and at the exit of turn 3, the Hill Grandstand will give you a front-on view as the cars come down this short yet fast straight into an almost 90-degree corner. Another overtaking spot – gravel on the exit of the corner adds another element for the driver’s to factor in. Lap 1 action is never far away at this corner, and the Kids Zone is a short walk from your seats.

Grandstand: RICCIARDO

Similar to the Jones/Brabham grandstand setups, the Ricciardo stand sits on the inside of Turns 3 & 4, meaning you will have more of a view of corner exit rather than front-on corner entry. With substantial run off in the car park section of Turn 4, you will have views of the cars both attacking and defending overtakes after turn 3. A giant screen is opposite, and with the Albert Park lake directly behind your seats, a photo opportunity of the local landscape is never far away.

Grandstand: WAITE

At the fastest section of track, the Waite Grandstand is perched at this exciting double corner. What was once a fast and challenging set of corners is now even faster with the chicane a few corners earlier removed for the 2022 race. F1 cars now are flat out from turn 6 through to braking at corner entry – right in front of your seats. With the Melbourne skyline directly behind you and the lake right in front of you, the Waite grandstand is one of the most popular stands at the Melbourne GP.

Grandstand: WEBBER

The Webber grandstand now provides views of a more likely overtaking spot than previous thanks to the corner being widened and re-profiled for the 2022 race. At the end of the second-longest straight on the track, this stand on the inside of Turn 13 makes you feel right on top of the cars. With the lake directly behind and a short walk to plenty of food, drink and merchandise stalls, the Webber grandstand is a good option for the budget conscious.
