Today’s F1 weekends can feel like ultra-high-end getaways, offering myriad ways for the sport’s well-heeled devotees—those fans and investors who can afford to travel and pay for upscale hospitality—to enjoy a motorsport experience that’s truly unique. It’s luxe in almost every other sense, from M-I-C-H-E-L-I-N (to all you foodies out there) to yacht parties on the Mediterranean. If you’re going to an F1 race, you’re gonna need some good shades.
No race embodies opulence like Monaco. For many Formula One aficionados, the ultimate Grand Prix viewing experience ascends to a whole new level when enjoyed from a superyacht in Port Hercule or a private balcony that overlooks the circuit. Their envious lot is juxtaposed elegantly with the Monaco of off-track pursuits. There is the chance—indeed, the near certainty—of world-class dining, and even the walk back from a meal to the hotel offers a chance to experience the buzz of racing in what is, when you come down to it, the most iconic combination of motorsports and luxury.
If your idea of opulence includes swaying palm trees, A-list star watchings, and top-of-the-line beach clubs, then the Miami Grand Prix is your race. It happens to be mine, too. Premium ticket holders cross an invisible line where race day begins and where lounge day continues. They enjoy trackside cabanas and curated VIP lounges. If they get peckish, there’s plenty to graze on, and it's safe to say the chefs who’ve fired up the outdoor grills and who’ve set up buffet stations have cooked at least another meal for another Grand Prix—that being the sum of the Miami citizenry on the verge of collective ennui (unmissable unless you missed it).
I breathe a sigh of relief.
Formula 1's return to Las Vegas translates into full-throttle, luxury experiences from the Las Vegas Strip to Formula 1 hotels and hospitality suites that overlook the racing action. Those who can afford high-roller penthouse packages, high-limit poker, and exclusive access to after parties can indulge and celebrate in ways that no previous Grand Prix has allowed.
As the sole race that takes place entirely at night, amidst a glowing cityscape, the Singapore Grand Prix offers a singular combination of thrills and grace.
Fans can find accommodation at opulent hotels like Marina Bay Sands or Fullerton Bay, and can partake of the upscale, Michelin-starred menus and the haute-couture, tax-free shopping that unfurls all too easily within the circuit's immediate soundscape.
Indeed, some hospitality packages for this race include rooftop seating stints; access to champagne bars whose contents are poured with a 100% forking fantastic view of the rest of the city; and unfettered forays into the pit lane, where remarkable access allows one to witness some pre-race magic that might just allow a fine evening to transcend into the unforgettable.
Slated to happen once again on the weekend of September 15–17, 2023, the Singapore Grand Prix will be the first such event to grace the circuits since I began writing this article.
With a development named Escapade Silverstone, Silverstone has, so to speak, upped its luxury game. The development has in its name a cheeky nod to what one will experience within its confines; for Escapade is no ordinary trackside residence, and those staying in its then-owned 2- to 4-bedroom condos and penthouses (a 3-bedroom model starts at £2.7 million) might find the likes of circuit-side spa treatments, private tours of the pit facilities, and the use of Silverstone's own 2-seater Aston Martin on a private track day as part of their prelude to the Historic Sports Car Club's pre-race show, among their more memorable experiences.
The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix offers one of the most complete luxury experiences on the F1 calendar, combining thrilling twilight-to-night racing with premium hospitality and world-class resort amenities. Held at the stunning Yas Marina Circuit, fans can enjoy trackside views from the Yas Suites, which are climate-controlled, from marina-side terraces, or even from the iconic W Hotel, which is built directly over the track.
Yas Island is a luxury playground with seven top-tier hotels, a constellation of gourmet restaurants, a golf course, beaches, a place called "Ferrari World," and after-race concerts that, by all accounts, are exclusive. If you're seeking the ultimate in motorsport indulgence, go for a package that includes all of the above and then some (Paddock Club access, for example, is not always part of a regular ticket and comes with a price that most can't pay). Whether you're sipping or chugging, Abu Dhabi raises the standard bar for F1 travel.
