General information
Every year for the last decade or so, the
leafy, inner suburban open space, also known
as Albert Park, gets transformed into a
state of the art racing track. As a consequence
all stands are built up for the occasion
which means the quality is limited, although
all stands should offer bucket seats. As
with the stands all facilities are also
built up for the event so the quality of
the restrooms is variable. Refreshments
are available everywhere and all stands
are no more than a couple of minutes away
provided you entered through the designated
entrance (check your ticket). For the General
Admission ticket holders different viewing
mounts are available around the track.
Viewing quality
Most of the grandstands are situated at
the start - finish area. Schumacher, Senna
and Prost stands at the last corner, Fangio
and Moss on the main straight and Jones
and Brabham at the first corner. All these
stands offer an excellent view. The most
popular stand is the Jones stand at the
end of the straight. The remaining two stands
are Clark and Waite at the other side of
the lake. Of these two Clark offers the
best view (corner 9). At various other locations
there are hospitality areas.
Prices
Ticket prices for the Australian
Grand Prix are amongst the most expensive
F1 events. This is partly because of the
exchange rate to the Australian dollar that
is not favourable to the US dollar or the
Euro and the fact that the stands pretty
much sell out every year. The prices Jones
and Brabham at around 500 Euros are steep
but they are at the most interesting part
of the track. Senna and Schumacher and even
Piquet offer seats at a more decent price
of around 300 Euros. General Admission is
not really expensive compared to other events.
Best Deal
The best deal on F1
tickets for the Australian Grand Prix
is the Moss stand. Located at the pitlane
exit it offers a view of the starting grid
and pit lane and just a bit of the first
corner. At these prices (of around 330 Euro)
this stand offer the best deal for the Melbourne
GP.
