Which is the best grandstand at the Singapore Grand Prix?
In this guide we'll help you choose the perfect grandstand for your Singapore Grand Prix™ experience.
The Main Grandstand in Singapore (also referred to as the Pit Grandstand) is positioned along the start / finish straight looking towards the pit lane and pit building. If you want a vantage point that allows you to see into the team garages and into the pit lane then the Main Grandstand is the grandstand for you. Seating to the left-hand side of the grandstand is positioned opposite the podium and seating towards the middle of the grandstand is positioned along the starting grid.
Super Pit ticket holders are seated in the upper rows in selected blocks with the best views of the team garages, starting grid or finish line.
The Pit Grandstand is also the best place to see the pre-race build up as the drivers prepare for lights out.

The Bay Grandstand is both the largest and the lowest priced grandstand at the Marina Bay Street Circuit. The Bay Grandstand is a permanent grandstand looking out towards a floating platform used for various outdoor events. The grandstand and the floating platform are separated by a road which becomes part of the Formula One circuit with the cars passing from right to left between turns 17 & 18. Some views can be limited and upgrading to the Connaught, Stamford or Padang Grandstand is worth considering.
The Empress Grandstand is positioned between Turns 11 and 12 just before the drivers enter the vaulted arch of the Anderson Bridge heading toward the Fullerton Hotel. This Grandstand gets you really close to the action as the cars flick right then left, riding the kerbs and kissing the wall on the exit of Turn 12.
Positioned at the end of the start / finish straight, the Turn 1 & Turn 2 Grandstands have panoramic views over the first three corners of the circuit.
These Grandstands are roughly positioned at a right angle to each other. The Turn 1 Grandstand sits parallel to the start / finish straight and the Turn 2 Grandstand faces down the start / finish straight with some seats having a head-on view of the cars as they hurtle towards the first corner.
It’s a medium-speed corner entering into turn one, and at turn two it’s important for the drivers to prepare their line for turn three. The Turns 1 & 2 Grandstands are priced at a premium and rightly so, this is a prime vantage point perfectly positioned for some first corner wheel to wheel action and late breaking moves.

Stamford Grandstand is positioned along the short section of track between Turns 7 & 8. Cars approach from the fastest part of the circuit before braking hard for the sharp left hander of Memorial Corner (Turn 7) then pass in front of the Stamford Grandstand before accelerating away towards Turn 8.
Connaught Grandstand. Positioned just before the breaking zone of Turn 14 this section of circuit has provided some rare overtaking opportunities in the past. With heavy braking into a 90-degree corner it can be pretty challenging for the drivers and by this point tires can be getting overheated too. The run-off zone here has been the final resting place of several cars and drivers over the years.
Located on a straight part of the Marina Bay Street Circuit between turns 9 &10 the Padang Grandstand is a good vantage point for seeing the cars at high speed. With no braking zones and no DRS you’re unlikely to see any overtaking here. Padang is also the best grandstand for quick access to the evening concerts which take place just behind the grandstand.
Premier Walkabout is the Marina Bay Street Circuits name for general admission. With a Premier Walkabout ticket you can explore the circuit stopping to watch the on track action from bleachers (tiered rows of benches) located around the circuit. Views are okay but it’s first come first served for the best spots.
