If you listen closely you can almost hear the cars revving their engines on Yas Marina Circuit.
The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix is just around the corner and it’s undoubtedly one of the biggest sporting spectacles in the UAE and the region.
For one weekend every November the eyes of the world are on Yas Marina Circuit as the Formula One season comes to a close with a nighttime race in Abu Dhabi.
Six-time World Drivers Champion Lewis Hamilton will be looking to end a spectacular season on a high with a win and the likes of teammate Valtteri Bottas, Max Verstappen, Daniel Ricciardo and Sebastian Vettel will be pushing him every metre of the track.
Away from the on-track action a huge number of stars descend on Abu Dhabi for a great weekend and to watch the race live and be part of on the most impressive Grand Prix’s in the world.
This year, the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix takes place at 5.10pm UAE time on Sunday, December 1.
But the weekend starts long before that with practising on November 29 and qualifying on November 30 so there’s more to the huge sporting event than the big race itself.
Plus a public holiday has been confirmed that weekend so there’s a good chance you won’t be in work during the day and can make it along to the circuit in good time to catch all of the action.
Tickets for the race are available on Yas Marina Circuit’s website, but there aren’t a huge number left as the race heads towards another sell out.
