General information
The Grand Prix de Monaco is the most glamorous of all Formula 1 races. The setting in the streets of Monaco is unique. Grandstands are built at the most difficult locations of circuit Monte Carlo. With only around 30,000 seats it is always selling quite fast. Prices for the Monaco GP are also out of this world. The "cheaper" stands (N, P, X and C) sell out really fast. The General Admission area Secteur Rocher is located to the side of the city centre and is quite literally a hill side. It is far away from the actual Monaco F1 track, but the vibe is great. Racing at Monaco Street Circuit takes place on Thursday, Saturday and Sunday.
Viewing quality
The major downside to a street circuit is that the view is limited to the stretch of road in front of your stand. Add to that the fact that they pass really close to the stand so you cannot even see them below the stand the actual time you can see a car is limited to 1-4 seconds per lap. Stand C is a good one as it is locate in the corner entering the tunnel. You need to walk quite a bit to get there though. Stand E in the chicane after the tunnel exit is also good. The large K stand is good, depending a bit on where you are. T high is good as it offers a great view of the new pit lane. Screens are scarce so be careful to choose a stand with one.
Prices
There is no comparison with other races. Prices for the Monaco Formula 1 Grand Prix are extremely high with Weekend tickets for the popular K stand at almost 800 Euro. If you are going to spend the money choose different stands for different days. The most popular stands are K High - in the harbor - B - at the Casino - and T High - overlooking the pit lane. Stands N, P and X offer the "cheapest" seats for the Grand Prix at around 300 Euro. The Secteur Rocher is by far the lowest priced ticket at around 80 Euro. The view is very limited from here but there are alot of people on the hill creating a rather unique atmosphere with the sound of the V8's echoing from the the buildings.
Best Deal
The best deal on F1 tickets for the Monaco Grand Prix is the T High stand. Located after the swimmming pool just before Rascasse it offers a view of the newly designed pit lane and has a good screen in front of the stand. You can also decide to take the T Low stand provided you order it before February March as they will sell the highest rows first and you can still get a glimpse of the pit lane action. If you want to visit the other days as well try the K stand for Saturday with a beautiful view of all the boats in the harbor. Budget choice will be the Secteur Rocher but you will not see the cars up close.
