The 72nd FIA Formula 1 World Championship at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix is coming to the Yas Marina Circuit in two months. Along with the F1 races, there is a lot more for visitors to experience at the Yas Marina Circuit during this time. From on-track action, to live concerts after the race, visitors can expect a lot of entertainment, from 9 December to 12 December 2021. Abu Dhabi Grand Prix’s Formula 1 World Championship will also be supported by the amazing FIA Formula 2 and FIA Formula 4 UAE.

Races - The On-track Action
The leading racers of the world compete in the World Championship on one of the most technologically advanced purpose-built circuits of the world. The entire weekend will be packed with on-track action, with the practice races, followed by the qualifying round, and lastly, the final Formula 1 race. Along with F1, the visitors can also enjoy the F2 and F4 (UAE) Championships at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 2021.

Formula 1:
The top constructors and the top drivers in the world will team up to compete and win the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix in 2021. The speed, thrill, and expert engineering will thrive on the track for the entire weekend, with practice races on 10 December, a practice race and the qualifier session on 11th December, and the final race on 12th December.

Formula 2:
From 9th to the 12th of December at the Yas Marina Circuit, spectators can also experience another international racing championship, which is Formula 2. Formula 2 is the true test of the driving ability of the drivers competing in it, as they will all use the same chassis, engine, and tire supplier for their cars. The cars used in Formula 2 races have some of the most efficient petrol engines in the world, that can produce over 1000 horsepower.

Formula 4 UAE
As a support event in the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix’s Formula 1, from 9 December to 12 December, the FIA Formula 4 UAE Championship will run its non-championship rounds on the Yas Marina Circuit. Formula 4 gives talented young drivers the chance to take their place in the single-seater racing championships. Hence, Formula 4 is a huge opportunity for up-and-coming-racers. In F4, the drivers use identical cars, so the victory is based purely on their skills of driving. F4 is also the first step for the people who aim to make their way into Formula 2 and Formula 1 Championships.

Seating during the Races
Before the current pandemic, visitors had the option of choosing where to sit in the Grandstands on booking their F1 tickets. After the pandemic, there are some rules and government guidelines that need to be followed for collective safety, and hence, for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 2021, seats will be pre-assigned to the spectators on their F1 ticket bookings. Additionally, they will be able to select their Grandstand section where relevant and will receive their e-tickets and seat numbers. For people visiting in a group of 10 or less, visitors are advised to make bookings together, to ensure getting their seats together.

Fan Zones, Food, and Concerts - The Off-track Action
