A major development of the circuit since 2004 has seen the pits "reversed" so they face towards the harbour. This has considerably enhanced the view from Stand L and Stand T (the Upper Rows of which have a good view across the track to the pits).This year all tickets are available on a "day to day" basis. If you buy Saturday & Sunday grandstand tickets in the same price category you can claim either 10% discount on the Saturday price or a similar Thursday ticket free of charge (subject to availability). Admission is free on Friday when holders of a Saturday or Sunday ticket are likely to be offered a free pitwalk. Secteur Rocher tickets give access to the Rock of Monaco overlooking the harbour. Although set back from the track, it is possible to view a good percentage of the circuit from this elevated, but often crowded, standing area. Z1 is an alternative standing area. All grandstands are numbered and uncovered. Stands B, K, L, M, O, T & V and Secteur Rocher have a view of a giant screen. Our seats in Stand K, L & O are not in the lower (cheaper) rows.
