By Charlotte Ashley 6 March 2015

As the action-packed Formula One schedule near its first event in less than two weeks, now is the perfect time to look ahead to organising a Grand Prix luxury yacht charter to experience the exhilarating racing in the utmost style.

This year’s events are guaranteed to provide thrills, as defending world champion Lewis Hamilton hopes to win his third title, facing stiff competition from fellow Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg. The 2015 Formula 1 season officially kicks off in with the Australian Grand Prix, hosted by Melbourne from 13 March. Formula One events make the perfect occasion for entertaining on a corporate charter or simply enjoying the atmosphere from the deck of a luxury charter yacht.

Particular noteworthy dates for the yachting calendar are unquestionably 21 to 24 May for attending the season’s most popular event, the Monaco Grand Prix, and later in the year from 27 to 29 November, when the racing comes to a dramatic close at the 7th Abu Dhabi Grand Prix against the spectacular backdrop of Dubai’s spectacular buildings.
