Circuit Key

About Abu Dhabi


Making its debut in 2009, the new Yas Marina Circuit certainly impressed Formula One with its striking infrastructure, including a five star hotel that straddles the track. On the ground, its 5.55 kilometres (run anti-clockwise) incorporate long straights leading into tight corners, to encourage overtaking, plus a series of fast sweeps that contribute to average lap speeds approaching 200kph. Contemporary protocol dictates that two-stop strategies will almost certainly be the preferred tactic.
