General information
The Sepang International Circuit is a very modern Formula 1 circuit and located nearby the capital of Malaysia: Kuala Lumpur. The overall quality of the grandstands and facilities is good. Most of the seating areas are inside the centre building, the so-called "Mall Area". The Mall Area even features a Prayer Room. The Mall area offers two sides, the main straight part and the South side. Both sides feature two tiers where the upper tier offers a superior view over the lower tiers. There are also two additional Covered stands namely the K and F stands. At the other locations around the track there are standing areas. There is one covered standing area, C2. One can park close to the desired grandstand so the walking distance to your seat is never long.
Viewing quality
The Mall Area offers an excellent view of the start-finish straight and the pit lane. The South side offers a great view of the straight before the last turn and also of the whole south part of the circuit (turns 9 to 14). Stand K, where Platinum means the sections closest to the turn, is the most popular stand with the prime view of the first corner. Stand F offers a decent view but the cars pass at higher speeds. The standing areas offer a decent view with C2 and G offering a nice view of respectively corner 9 and corner 4.
Prices
Ticket prices for the Malaysian Grand Prix seem to be lower each year as opposed to the yearly increase we usually see. This is partly because the average Malayan does not earn enough to allow him to visit the event. The prices for the Mall Area are pretty average when compared to other events. The standing areas are very cheap. We see that a lot of back packers that are traveling through the region choose these. Make sure to choose the covered C2-area because it can be very hot in during the Malaysian GP!
Best Deal
The best deal on Malaysian F1 tickets for the Malaysian Grand Prix is the K1 Gold stand. Located in Turn 1 it offers a great view of the technically challenging first curves. It also provides a great view of the characteristic Mall Area and the Main Grandstands. This quality paired with the price makes this stand the best deal for the Grand Prix of Malaysia. If you are on a tight budget you should go for the C2 area. Take a towel or plaid with you to sit on and go to the right part of the area (close to Turn 9) and you will have an excellent weekend for well under 100 Euro.
