A Formula One Driver’s Guide to Melbourne, From Surf Spots to Burger Joints

by Jordi Lippe-McGraw via WSJ

Travelers headed to Melbourne, Australia, for the Formula One Australian Grand Prix will find a city that perfectly blends high-octane sport with a relaxed, coastal-urban lifestyle. Set around Albert Park Lake on March 5 to 8, the circuit is a stone’s throw from the beach, making it easy to go directly from the racetrack to the shore. The ease of access to both city landmarks and natural retreats makes the city in Victoria a truly unique host for F1’s season-opening race.

Often hailed as the sporting capital of the world, the city is a home away from home for New Zealand–born Racing Bulls driver Liam Lawson. He enjoys the area for its proximity to his family, vibrant sports culture, stunning beaches and world-class dining. 

“The atmosphere over race weekend in the city is unreal, and there’s something about it being the first race of the season which makes the vibes even better,” Lawson said.

Here, he shares his favorite places to stay, eat and explore for a day in Melbourne, a city that comes alive during race weekend.

What makes Melbourne such a special city to visit?

I think what makes Melbourne so great is how the city blends urban life with super easy access to beaches and parks, which is pretty rare. While I love the vibe of being in a cool city, sometimes you need to reset in nature, and Melbourne makes that so easy.

Where do you like to stay in Melbourne?

I personally like being close to Albert Park. I grew up by the beach, so being by the water feels like I’m closer to home. But the Langham [hotel] is amazing. It’s in Southbank, so not central Albert Park, although not far. It feels very luxurious and isn’t too far from the lake, which is perfect for a morning or evening walk if you want to unwind.

Melbourne is famous for its brunch culture. What’s your go-to breakfast spot?

Lune Croissanterie. Their lemon-curd cruffin is unbelievable.

How about lunch and dinner?

There’s a place called Charrd, which does unreal burgers. The menu is small and simple, but that means they’re the best at what they do. Charrd Double with fries, you can’t go wrong. And one of my top spots for dinner is this place called Nomad, where everything is smoked over a woodfire. The way they cook the rib-eye and flatbread is honestly just so good. I often don’t have room for dessert, but if you do, they have this olive-oil ice-cream sandwich that hits the spot.

What landmark in Melbourne has made a lasting impression on you? 

One morning I went surfing with friends at Bells Beach. To see a community of surfers come together before what’s considered to be the normal working day is really cool. It’s as though everyone is living multiple days in one.

Speaking of the beach, where is your favorite place to relax? 

I love St. Kilda Beach. Although I like unwinding, I can’t actually sit still for very long, so you’ll probably find me doing water sports there. It’s the perfect spot.

If fans spotted you around the city, where would they be most likely to find you?

Probably at Royal Melbourne Golf Club. I’ve recently taken up golf, so any chance I can play, I take. The club has a lot of history, which feels pretty special. It’s also built on a sand belt, which adds a unique character to the course. It’s just a beautiful place to play.

Do you have a favorite hidden gem?

Greville Records is very cool. They have so many genres of music and it provides a hub for people to meet and discuss their love of music, too. It feels like a community there, which I love.

Is there a can’t-miss experience that captures Melbourne’s lively atmosphere? 

I don’t think I could answer this without mentioning the Australian Grand Prix. It’s like everyone in the city has been waiting for this moment, then when it’s finally here, everyone comes together for a great time.

With only 24 hours to explore, what’s your number one tip to make the most of a short stay in the city? 

Walk everywhere. I’ve often come across my favorite hidden gems, some of which I’m keeping to myself, while walking around.
