Yas Marina Circuit - Track Guide

Yas Marina Circuit

Based on Yas Island, Abu Dhabi, Yas Marina Circuit is considered one of the most technologically-advanced Formula 1® circuits in the world and a home for motorsports in the Middle East.

Yas Marina Circuit was unveiled on 30th October 2009 with the final race of the Formula 1® World Championship – the inaugural FORMULA 1 ETIHAD AIRWAYS ABU DHABI GRAND PRIX – to a crowd around 60,000 spectators.

Our versatile facility opened its doors to the world after two years of intensive planning and construction involving 14,000 staff and 35 million construction man-hours. The United Arab Emirates was eager to take in the beautiful landscaping and traditional Arabic hospitality alongside the sensational on-track action. Yas Marina Circuit encourages the growth of sporting culture in the UAE and prides itself on being the centre for motorsports excellence in the Middle East.
