The Sepang International Circuit has slashed ticket prices up to 80% for students. The Mall Area grandstand where the RM500 Citrine seats have been slashed to only RM100. The Tower seats at Turn 15 have been priced at RM100, down from the usual RM500 price. The C-2 covered hill-stand area is now only RM50, down from RM200. These special rates are only for fans with valid student IDs and can only be purchased at the SIC counter at KL Sentral or the KLIA Domestic Arrival Hall Flying Emporium.
More goodies for students – an 8 seat slot at a Fun Kart race against F1, GP2 Asia and Formula BMW Pacific drivers on the 2nd of April 2009. The qualifying rounds for these 8 seats will be held across 2 days, with the first being this Saturday.
“We have provided an opportunity of a life time for students to race with their racing idols. This has not been made possible in the past and hopefully SIC will make this an annual if not a more frequent event,” said SIC media manager Irwan A. Rahman.

it's this year f60 vs MP-24 drag race!! lol.. i know it's test day & can be anything but darn! I love to watch it.. :)
I think is a business gimmick… F1 financial have gone down with the recession and i might guess that the sales is not so well. That why they need to replace it with other offers… Good luck F1..
ah shit, this offer is over 1year late for me! :(

I've personally never seated at tower section but been at citrine, crystal, jade etc. (i.e mall area).. citrine offer good visibility over almost half of the circuit & my favourite turn 9…. that turn is one of drivers favourite turn to do overtaking before going uphill… it's where u can see overtaking move by the drivers first hand (not via giant screen)… plus a long straight where drivers floor the throttle before make a move to overtake at last turn (turn 15), but of coz u need to be seated at tower section to actually see it first hand if the overtake move succesfull or not… hope this help :)
That's good news for students.
Actually, if u hv connection, u can even get free tix. Every yr always got many free tix given last minute cuz cannot sell full house, bt like I said, nd some connection la.
