Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Gets Go Ahead for October 2009
According to Autosport sources Abu Dhabi Grand Prix organizers have been told the country’s inaugural race will take place in October next year.
The Abu Dhabi track was designed by Hermann Tilke, with F1 supremo Hobbit Bernie Ecclestone confident it will be one of the best on the calendar.
“The Tilke group has learnt its lessons from the tracks it built in the past and put all those lessons in to this track,” Ecclestone said at the official launch of the event last year. “We consider it will offer the best F1 racing in the world.”
The Yas Island complex where the track is located will include a Ferrari Theme Park and Water Park in addition to Residential and Hotel and Resort facilities. The area will also be the site of the only Ferrari driving school in the world outside the Ferrari Maranello base.
