    Indanapolis MotoGp - Seat Recommendations / Who is going?

    Hey everyone,

    I will be purchasing tickets for the Indy MotoGp in the next week and I was wondering if anybody had any pictures they could share or any info on their favourite places or thoughts on best places to sit.

    I am mostly interested in sitting where you can see the most passes take place... I am going to watch last year's race again, but thought I would post up on here to see if anybody who has been in the past can give me some good advice before I buy them up.

    Thanks!

    Google "motogp indy best seats" there are quite a few bike forums discussing this very issue and a few good tips to boot. I believe section H and higher the better for the best vantage point and clear view of the big screen. Hope this helps.

    I was there last year and general admission is the best deal, I got a cheap ticket from a scalper across the street from the track. Ducati Island, Gasoline Alley, the infield displays, the back straight, Grandstands "A", "Paddock" and "C" are all open to general admission tickets. General admission is definitely the way to go.

    Thanks Franz. I was considering that option but couldn't figure out where GA was allowed to go. Very much appreciated.

    also thanks F1Mauro I was able to find some good threads on some other forums.

    How much is GA this year?

    Last year I sat in I. Pretty good view for me, I could see many corners and could follow battle action for multiple corners. you also get to watch some big time high speed wheelies down the straight.

    I sat in the 'E' Penthouse last year and will be there again this year. You can see the end of the straight, turns 1 through 5 and the exit from pit lane. We got to see the two big crashes that caused the Moto2 race to restart as well as many good passes during all races. There did seem to be a fair amount of action on the opposite side of the track as well, maybe near turns 11/12. Also, a lot of the riders were practicing their starts on the back straight which might be of interest to you. I'm just not sure how close the seats are to the track in that area.

    I really enjoyed our seats because they were covered and kept us out of the sun. The Ducati stand, for example, was in full, direct sun and would have been sweltering that weekend. It was over 30 degrees on race day.

    Send me a PM if you want more info.
