GENERAL ADMISSION AREA:
Activity and amenities abound in the General Admission area at Adelaide’s famous street circuit. Eight Bytecraft Super Screens, plus viewing platforms ensure great race spectating and the atmosphere is electric. The Support Race Paddocks, Australian Defence displays, After Race Concert oval, family area, free amusements for children, show rides, catering, displays, merchandise, and V8 driver autograph sessions provide non-stop entertainment.


 

BRABHAM STRAIGHT:
Situated at the end of Brabham Straight (Dequetteville Terrace), the Brabham Straight Chrome Grandstand provides prime viewing of the fiercest braking duals on the circuit as drivers battle for position as they enter the roundabout hairpin. Family tickets are also available for this grandstand. A Bytecraft Super screen completes the viewing package.


 

PIT ENTRY STAND:
See the cars peel off for their rapid pit stops and watch them thunder into the Mistral Hairpin and weave under brakes. A Bytecraft Super Screen ensures a complete view of all the race action.



WAKEFIELD GOLD:
This Gold grandstand commands great views as the cars power hard up Wakefield Road after exiting the Senna Chicane. It’s a vital section of the circuit, with drivers placing their cars for the run into the ninety-degree Turn 4. It’s a matter of the fast line, but being careful not to let the opposition on the inside for a last second out-braking manoeuvre. Screens are provided to ensure complete race action coverage.



HAIRPIN:
Situated on the tight Hairpin corner entering Pit Straight, this stand offers viewing of both the back and Pit Straights. It’s a crucial section of the circuit to gain maximum speed past the start/finish line. A Bytecraft Super Screen is situated on the southern end of the Pit Building for Hairpin stand spectators.



TURN 10:
The disc brakes have just glowed cherry red for the hairpin at the end of Brabham Straight and then it’s back on full power for the left-hander, Turn 10. It’s slightly ‘blind’ from a driver’s viewpoint, but it’s a great spot to watch for fans, with the V8 Supercars doing 150kph plus. More often than not the cars are two wide as they fight for position. Television monitors within the stand complete the viewing package.



TURN 1:
This grandstand offers views of the cars as they enter the first section of the Adelaide track’s famous chicane. Cars have to brake and be “line-perfect” at this section of the circuit and also cope with other vehicles re-entering from pit exit. A Bytecraft Super Screen also provides full race coverage.



TURN 8:
The Turn 8 Grandstand provides thrilling views of Australia's most spectacular V8 Supercar corner. The stand is located on Brock Straight (Bartels Road) deep into the apex for the breathtaking virtually 'no lift' sweeper that is taken at 200kph plus in sixth gear! A Bytecraft Super Screen completes the viewing package.



BROCK STRAIGHT:
Named in memory of Australian motor sport icon Peter Brock, this outstanding grandstand gives patrons views of both Brock Straight (Bartels Road) and Brabham Straight (Dequetteville Terrace) and the super fast Sweeper. A Bytecraft Super Screen ensures complete race action coverage.



BARRY SHEENE PIT STRAIGHT:
The largest grandstand on the circuit sited on Pit Straight offers the drama of race starts and finishes and pit stop action, plus conveniently located catering and merchandising outlets. Three giant Bytecraft Super Screens are provided for Barry Sheene Pit Straight Grandstand patrons.



SENNA CHICANE:
Named in memory of Formula 1 Grand Prix great Ayrton Senna, this grandstand overlooks Turns 1 and 2 of the Chicane where V8 Supercar stars flip left and right and ride the kerbs to maximise speed onto Wakefield Road. A Bytecraft Super Screen makes sure patrons see every gear change and on-track challenge.



PIRIE STREET (under cover):

This Gold grandstand is situated on Turn 7, a tight right-hander leading onto the fastest section of the circuit, Adelaide Straight. It’s a matter of hard braking and awesome acceleration. Patrons enjoy full cover and television monitors within the Pirie Street Stand.



CHICANE INSIDE:
Considered by many as the prime viewing location on the circuit, this stand provides breathtaking viewing of the action through the Chicane onto Wakefield Road. Drivers ‘thread the needle’ and if they get it right it’s awesome, but get it wrong and the run-off areas and barriers come into play. A Bytecraft Super Screen again completes the viewing package.
