FORMULA 1 QATAR AIRWAYS AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX GRANDSTAND GUIDE

Published on November 25, 2025

Choosing the right Grandstand can shape your entire FORMULA 1 QATAR AIRWAYS AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX experience. Albert Park is fast, flowing and full of overtaking zones, which means every stand gives you a different perspective of the action. Whether you want start grid intensity, late-braking chaos or pure straight line speed, there is a seat that suits how you like to watch racing.

Below is a simplified guide to the Grandstand Options available through our ticket packages. Clear, easy, and designed to help you choose the view that feels right for race day.

Button Grandstand

Button sits at Turn 8 where cars blast out of a sweeping corner and accelerate hard down the straight. The speed is what stands out most here. Engines are loud, cars are pushed to their limit and slipstream runs build lap after lap. Ideal for anyone who loves velocity and flat out racing.

Clark Grandstand

Clark is just beyond Turn 8 on the outside. From here you can see cars reaching top speed down Albert Park's back straight. Superscreens nearby keep you locked into the action and amenities are close so you do not miss a second. This stand is ideal for fans who love pure velocity and want to soak in the straight line thrill.

Prost Grandstand

Prost sits along the Main Straight with views of the start finish line and Turn 1. You will see the lights go out, the opening laps and the final dash to the chequered flag.

It is perfect for fans who want the big moments right in front of them.

Hill Grandstand

Hill looks straight into Turn 3 which is one of Albert Park’s most reliable braking and overtaking zones. Drivers dive in deep, fight for position and often go side by side on exit. It is an exciting view with regular action across the entire race weekend.

Schumacher Grandstand

Schumacher is positioned at the final section of the lap where drivers settle the car through the last corners and prepare for the run to the line. You feel the tension as mistakes here can cost time or open the door for a move into Turn 1. It is a smooth blend of corner rhythm and anticipation.

Lauda Grandstand

Lauda sits outfield at Turn 12 with a view of one of the last corners before the straight. It offers both potential overtaking action and scenic Melbourne views. Lauda is perfect for fans who want a mix of racing and atmosphere.

Fangio Grandstand

Fangio overlooks the Main Straight with visibility to pit entry and exit. This is where you see the start, the finish, formation restarts and race strategy unfold. It feels like the core of the Grand Prix where everything begins and everything ends.

Senna Grandstand

Senna sits along the Main Straight near the finish line. Cars pass at full throttle with DRS engaged and the atmosphere feels loud and electric. It is an ideal choice if you want to be close to high speed, final lap push and the energy of the chequered flag moment.

Ricciardo Grandstand

Ricciardo is located between Turns 3 and 4 on the infield. You get a clear look at mid-lap cornering, positioning and recovery when drivers miss the apex or fight through traffic. It offers variety rather than one single type of moment which makes it well balanced for viewing.
