Grandstand Information
GENERAL ENTRY
GENERAL ENTRY
- Prime Viewing Location
-Turn 3 View
-Turn 4 View
- Panoramic views
Access to the highest point of the track, along the back straight of the circuit. If you are sat towards turn three, you’ll have a prime view of a major overtaking zone. Just ask Max Verstappen who bumped Charles Leclerc off the track in 2019 to take victory (told you he’d make amends…). If you’re sat towards turn four, you’ll be at the end of the second DRS zone, as drivers will battle to be last of the late breakers. As you’re at the highest point, you’ll also get a great view of rest of the track as the pack moves through a lap.
RED BULL L/M/N GRANDSTANDS
L/M/N GRANDSTANDS
- Prime Location
- Action Spot
- Overtaking Zone
- Full Track View
- Convenient Access
Located just after the tight turn one, the Red Bull Grandstand runs alongside the long straight as the cars climb to the highest point on the circuit. Here, you’ll see the most action as the cars tussle for position after traversing the start. You’re also right by the pit exit, so you’ll be the first to know if a team has pulled off its pit-stop strategy to perfection.
In 2022, fans in this grandstand witnessed drivers lining up overtaking moves into turn three along the steep climb. But a pleasant surprise was the amount of overtaking through turns 6 and 7. The new generation of cars has allowed the drivers to follow each other closer, and pull off moves they haven’t been able to in the past. The Red Bull Grandstand offers an awesome view across the track and action in all three sectors.
It’s handily located right by the F1 Village, and has clear views to two big screens to catch all the on-track moves.
TURN 10 GRANDSTAND
TURN 10 GRANDSTAND
- Located at the final corner (Turn 10) of the Red Bull Ring
- View of cars exiting Turn 9 and accelerating onto the start/finish straight
- Close to pit entry
- Easy access to main circuit entrances and exits
- Open-air grandstand
- Numbered seating
- Large TV screen for following all on-track action
The Turn 10 grandstand at the Austrian Grand Prix is situated at the final corner of the Red Bull Ring, providing a view of the cars as they exit Turn 9 and accelerate onto the start/finish straight. It’s a favorite among spectators thanks to its location near the end of the lap, close to the pit entry, and its easy access to the circuit’s main entrances and exits. The grandstand is open-air, offers numbered seating, and includes a large TV screen to follow the action throughout the track.
STEIERMARK (TURN 1) GRANDSTAND
STEIERMARK (TURN 1) GRANDSTAND
- View of cars charging down the pit straight at ~330 km/h
- Excellent vantage point for late braking into the first corner
- Ability to see cars again later in the lap (hill to Turn 3 and down toward Turn 6)
- Close to the F1 Fan Village and nearby bars
Very close to the on-track action
- Large screen directly in front for full race coverage
After the start, the cars will be charging down the pit straight at speeds of around 330 km/h, but you’ll have the perfect vantage point to see who’s the latest on the brakes as they slow down for the first corner. Much like the Red Bull Grandstand, this spot also offers a chance to catch the cars later in the lap. You’ll see them climb the hill to Turn 3, and again as they make their way down towards Turn 6.
It’s an ideal spot to soak in the race atmosphere, with the F1 Fan Village and bars just a short walk away. You’ll be as close to the action as possible with a big screen right in front of you so you won’t miss a thing.
START-FINISH GRANDSTAND
START-FINISH GRANDSTAND
- Largest grandstand on the circuit, spanning the entire pit straight
- Ideal spot for qualifying
- Excellent view of pre-race grid atmosphere, including celebrities and TV crews
- Great vantage point for watching teams and drivers prepare on the grid
- Post-race podium celebration visible from the east end of the grandstand
The biggest grandstand on the circuit, the myWorld Grandstand stretches the length of the pit straight. While you’ll experience the deafening adrenaline rush of 20 Formula 1 engines revving in unison as the lights go out for the start, it’s a perfect spot to watch qualifying, as the cars will reach a blistering 313kph as they cross the line to begin their qualifying lap on Saturday.
It’s also a great vantage point for off-track events. Before the race, you’ll soak up the grid atmosphere, spotting the celebrities and TV crews during the grid walk as the teams and drivers get in the zone, and then post-race, you’ll bask in the glory of your winner, as the podium faces the east-end of this grandstand.
If you wish to pay by deposit, full payment will be required no later than 12 weeks prior to the event.
