World Choice Sports

Speeding cars. Screeching tires. Cheering crowds. All converging at a futuristic racing circuit over three pulse-racing days.

No, this is not a remake of The Running Man. It’s the Formula One Abu Dhabi Grand Prix and it’s the event of a lifetime.

Today’s Big Deal gives you the chance to experience it for yourself at the Yas Marina Circuit in November. So join a crowd of 60,000 fellow adrenaline lovers for the thrilling climax to the 2017 racing season.

Heart of the action

As the sun sets on Yas Marina Circuit on 26th November, you’ll be there for the Formula One final.

From your exclusive-use seat, you’ll get to watch motor racing’s biggest heroes pit themselves against each other on one of the world’s toughest courses. With a pumped-up crowd around you and cars whizzing by at 200 mph, you’ll be right at the heart of the action.

You’ll get to enjoy three days of racing in total and will be staying in a 4-star hotel in glamorous Abu Dhabi. The city is at its best during the Grand Prix, when superstars, supermodels and even super yachts all gather to soak up the excitement.

And if that wasn’t enough, you’ll also be entertained in the evenings by Calvin Harris, Pink and Mumford & Sons.

Basically, every nanosecond will be filled with thrills, spills and good times.

Your three day Marina Grandstand Weekend Pass will give you access to both the qualifiers and the final. You will leave from Edinburgh Airport on Thursday 23rd November and return on Monday 27th November.

If you’d rather fly from Glasgow, Inverness, Aberdeen and Newcastle, you can pay a supplement of £99 per person.

Allocated seat in covered grandstand

You will get your own exclusive numbered seat throughout the entire Grand Prix weekend.


You’ll be in the Support Pit Building, allowing you to see a large part of the circuit, including the critical turns around the Marina. There is also a video wall opposite, meaning you won’t miss a thing.

Tickets are transferable, so you can share them with friends and family. Food and drinks will be available to buy in or near your grandstand.

The three day pass means you will be able to enjoy the practice and qualifying sessions on Friday and Saturday plus, of course, the main race on Sunday.

Thrills ‘n’ spills

If your flight allows it, you’ll also have access to Thursday’s Pit Lane walk, meaning you could catch a glimpse of a racing superstar.

Your pass is also your ticket to the three post-race concerts, featuring Calvin Harris, Pink and Mumford & Sons.


And finally, your pass will give you entry to the amazing views of the Abu Dhabi Hill General Admission area, plus Ferrari World Abu Dhabi and Yas Waterworld. The pass is valid for each day that you have entry.

If you have time, you could head to one of the island’s white sandy beaches too.
