About this experience
Yas Marina Circuit is one of Abu Dhabi's best-known motorsport venues, hosting the F1™ Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix each year. Outside race season, you can drive the same 5.28-kilometre track yourself, choosing between an Aston Martin GT4 racing car or a Formula Yas 3000 single-seater built for paddle-shift gear changes and open-wheel handling.
This driving experience puts you on the exact tarmac used by professional racing drivers, with the circuit's sweeping corners and long straights laid out beneath the Yas Marina skyline. The Aston Martin GT4 gives you a taste of GT racing in a closed-cockpit car, while the Formula Yas 3000 strips things back to an open-wheel, open-cockpit format closer to single-seater racing. Both options are run on the full Yas Marina layout in Abu Dhabi, giving you a genuine sense of the track's technical demands.
Sessions are structured around track time rather than sightseeing, so this suits anyone wanting a hands-on driving experience rather than a passive tour. Choose the car that matches the type of driving you're after, then head to the circuit to get started.
What to expect
You'll arrive at Yas Marina Circuit and head to the driving experience area, where you'll be matched with your chosen car, either the Aston Martin GT4 or the Formula Yas 3000. Expect a safety briefing covering the circuit layout, the car's controls and the paddle-shift gear system before you're cleared to head out onto the track.
Once on the circuit, you'll drive the full 5.28-kilometre Yas Marina layout, working through its corners and straights at pace. The Formula Yas 3000's open-cockpit design gives a rawer, more exposed driving feel, while the Aston Martin GT4 offers a closed-cockpit GT racing experience. Either way, you're driving the same track used for the F1™ Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, right in the middle of Abu Dhabi's Yas Island.
Things to note
- Wear closed-toe shoes suitable for driving, along with comfortable, non-restrictive clothing
- Arrive with time to spare for any briefing or check-in before your session
- Temperatures on Yas Island can be high, so stay hydrated before and after your drive
- Bring a valid driving licence, as this is typically required for on-track driving experiences
- Check which car type suits your experience level, as the Aston Martin GT4 and Formula Yas 3000 handle differently
- Confirm the exact session time in advance, as opening hours vary by day of the week
