The Australian Defence Force is proud to be supporting the Australian Formula 1 Grand Prix 2025 with a range of exciting flyovers and interactive ground displays. 

Above the race venue, spectators will see a thrilling aerobatic display by the Air Force Roulettes, and witness a flypast by a Supermarine Spitfire MkVIII, heritage aircraft from No.100 Squadron.

On the ground, visitors can test their skills in a flight simulator and learn more about the broad range of Defence Force career opportunities. 

Aerial display details:

Aerial footage will be captured by the Roulette pilots during these displays and video compiles will be available for media soon afterwards on the link below. 

All flying is subject to change, including short notice cancellation, due to variables such as air traffic control, weather and operational requirements.

Safety, noise management and the environment are vital considerations in the planning and conduct of Defence flying activities. Participating squadrons will operate with a view to minimising the impact on local communities.

Media Note

Defence personnel including Roulette Pilot, FLTLT Peter Brewster, and other Air Force representatives are available for interview.
