Ulster Grand Prix & Dundrod 150 Road Race - Spectator Points

Start / Finish
Excellent spectating form the Joey Dunlop Grandstand (Pre-Booked tickets only ) opposite the paddock. Great views of the last corner and start line activities plus loads of facilities.

The Flying Kilo
This long straight has viewing points the whole length, but be prepared to be blown backwards by the 190+ speed of the Superbikes! Very, very fast!

Rock Bends
The first left sweep can be observed from the inside of the Rock Crossroads and the following right and left are viewed from inside both corners only. Good vantage points all along this section.

Leathemstown
A great place to watch from both inside and outside the circuit, this is the first of the hard braking right-handers. Get there early to get a good spot. Loads of facilities and the infamous Ballymac Hotel is a short walk away.

Deer’s Leap
The view from the Deer’s Leap is two fold. You can watch the riders accelerate all the way from Leathemstown and then disappear over the blind right corner, or from the top watch them go over the brow and wheelie down the hill towards the second rise. Spectating is only on the outside in the first part and then on the inside down the second part.

Cochranstown Corner
Much faster than it looks and spectating is limited on the outside as the riders approach this right sweep. Loads of room on the inside of the corner and limited spots on the exit towards Quaterlands.

Quaterlands Corner
Another fast right sweep with spectating only on the outside, the view is restricted but much better at Ireland’s a few hundred meters away.

Ireland’s Corner
This is also much faster than it looks and there good spots along the inside of the circuit as the riders take this fast left sweep and go away towards the climb to Budore.

Budore
The riders climb uphill to the fastest corner on the circuit, spectating is limited along the outside of the circuit only towards this very fast right-hander, but no spectating at it. The Exit has good views form both sides of the road. There are no facilities along this stretch but it is highly recommended as an ultimate experience.

Joeys Windmill
This great right hand bend is very difficult to spectate from as the land and house is all privately owned. Better to watch on the entrance or on the exit towards Jordans Cross.

Wheelers Corner
This fast right-hander at the top of the circuit is very popular on a good day as the views are good up to, and through the corner from both sides. No Spectating on the exit towards Tornagrough.

Tornagrough
Good views here too of the run from Wheelers and into this fast left-hander. Good views on the approach on the outside only and on the inside only of this scratching corner.

The Hairpin
Excellent viewing at this famous corner. Watch as the riders exit the fast left of Tornagrough and then hit the brakes. It may be slow but many a race is won or lost here. Facilities here too.

Flowbog Crossroads
This fast left-hander followed by a downhill approach to the Quarries has loads of room to spectate and facilities too.

The Quarries
This is a great place to watch as the viewing is excellent from the high banks around the fast right and left. Great place to feel the famous the UGP atmosphere.

Dawson’s Bend
This last long right-hander on to the Start / Finish straight is awesome. The riders are nearly flat out on their sides as they accelerate round to the line. Spectating is great from the banks on the outside or from down by the road edge. There’s room on the inside too from the paddock area.
