New Stoner grandstand added for Phillip Island MotoGP
The 'stoner Pavilion' is a 460 seat grandstand and temporary marquee located on Turn 12 with sensational views down Gardner Straight.
Stoner, who will celebrate his 26th birthday during the event, said he is hoping that fans in the new Stoner Pavilion will be able to celebrate his 5th consecutive win at his home race.
"I am thrilled to have this facility named in my honour. I love the Phillip Island circuit and have had some amazing results there," he said.
"The fans are always amazing and there is nothing better than racing in front of a home crowd. I look forward to seeing the facility in October and hope I can make it five in a row at the island."
The first temporary facility of its type, the Stoner Pavilion features its own hospitality marquee located behind the grandstand with access to food and beverages, private television screens and Casey Stoner merchandise, all in a comfortable undercover facility.
Australian Grand Prix Corporation CEO, Andrew Westacott, said the Stoner Pavilion is one of a number of improvements to the facilities at the Phillip Island circuit.
"We're encouraging Stoner fans to get an army of mates together and be the first to experience this fantastic new facility. It's the perfect place to witness all the action at Turn 12 and then full throttle down Gardner Straight."
Stoner Pavilion tickets are now available, priced from $365. Available through motogp.com.au or calling Foxtix on 1800 100 030.
