| The time to book is now because September buyers have a big chance to win their very own lap of the Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit and join on the on-track show of the Yamaha Finance round.
Here’s the link to ticketing or go direct to ticketek.com.au for advance prices and get a 3-day General Admission(GA) with free PADDOCK access for just $125^ advance; or coupled with 4 nights camping just $275^ advance.
And this is no pie-in-the-sky prize! You have a BIG chance to win – in fact, a one-in-three chance – if you buy your WorldSBK 3-day GA, Bar SBK tickets or camping packages* during September.
The drill is this. We’re only taking the first 750 three-day ticket purchasers that buy in September, and each ticket purchased will go in the draw for 250 precious rides. We’ll let you know in mid-October if you are in our lucky 250 so you can plan to head to the island with your bike, your helmet and gear ready to go.
Imagine your Friday at the track if you’re one of our 250 winners! You’ll have spent the day trackside watching all the action of the opening day of competition for world superbikes, world supersport and the leading Australian classes, and late afternoon Friday, you and your beloved bike will be one of 250 riders called to scrutineering.
You’ll pass through the tunnel, and once granted the AOK from marshals, you’ll be waved onto Australia’s 4.445km track of hallowed motorcycling heaven to do your own lap of the island, with bitumen kindly prepped for you Friday by none other than Jonathan Rea, Chaz Davies and the world’s best production bike riders!
It will be you over the crest at Lukey Heights, coming down Gardner Straight to face Doohan Corner, taking the best line from Southern Loop through Stoner Corner and around to Siberia. The corners you’ve dreamt about, the turns where you have stood awe-inspired to watch the world’s best and their two wheel skill…well come February 28, it could be your time on the track.
“We want our fans to experience Phillip Island like never before,” said David Bennett, general manager of the Phillip Island Grand Prix circuit. “We’ll make it safe, and our marshals will be in control, but for those lucky 250, we promise a great lap of enjoyment for you to always remember.”
Speaking of Jono and Chaz, the WorldSBK field is starting to take shape with news this past week that British wild boy Scott Redding is joining Chaz Davies in the Ducati team to head the red team.

Over at BMW, Ireland’s Eugene Laverty will be joining the affable Tom Sykes for the German marque; and of course, our quasi-Aussie, Jonathan Rea continues with Kawasaki in his sixth season with the world championship-winning squad.
There’s more 2020 grid news coming, but 2019 is far from over yet, with four rounds remaining and revving up this weekend at Portugal’s Portimao circuit. Eyes are on the fight at the top with Rea’s spectacular mid-season charge overtaking the early dominance of the brilliant Alvaro Bautista. Davies has eventually struck form on the Ducati after a difficult start to the season, and the Yamaha boys Alex Lowes and Michael van der Mark and Kawasaki’s Toprak Razgatlioglu continue to threaten for podium finishes.
