Yas Marina Circuit

There are plenty of different choices available. Local racing fans can take advantage of track days to take their own car or motorbike through its paces on the track. If you’re visiting from overseas or you want to try something fast and furious, then you can pick between an Aston Martin GT4, a Ferrari 458 GT, a Mercedes AMG GTC, Formula 300 racing cars, drag versions of the Mercedes AMG E-63 or Chevrolet Camaro, or drift cars. A complete list of the cars and experiences on offer is available on the Yas Marina Circuit’s official website. For visitors who’d prefer not to drive themselves, passenger experiences with an expert driver are available.

The official tour of the Yas Marina Circuit takes about two hours. For all the other experiences you should plan to spend slightly longer than the stated length of the activity since you’ll be given a thorough safety briefing before being allowed onto the track.

There are several other races at the Yas Marina Circuit including the Gulf 12 Hours, a long-distance endurance race that takes place in winter, or races from the TRD 86 Cup, a championship where amateurs can join the fun. Prices for spectators to watch races range from AED 25 to AED 50, but might be more expensive for Formula 1 races. Check the official website for more details.

Yas Island has a high density of tourist attractions, so there’s something for everyone in the family to enjoy. In addition to Yas Marina Circuit and the Ferrari World amusement park, you can also visit Yas Waterworld water park, Warner Bros. World, and Sea World Abu Dhabi.
