First corner and the far end of the pit lane

The upper deck at the Turn 1 end of the north side. Looks straight down at the first corner, where most of the overtaking happens, and across the pit boxes at the far end of the lane.

Paired with TURQUOISE, the tier below it. On the Main Grandstand the upper tier of each pair clears the catch fencing; the lower tier does not. If an unobstructed view matters more than being close to the cars, take the upper deck.

One clip covers SAPPHIRE and TURQUOISE, so it may have been filmed from TURQUOISE rather than SAPPHIRE. SAPPHIRE is the upper deck of the pair, so the same outlook from a different height.Footage via GPDestinations, How to Buy Tickets, 2026 Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia
