Abu Dhabi Grand Prix F1 race Mar 02, 2009
good news :)

I think this year we may have the chance to attend the F1-grand prix on November


Abu Dhabi: Development projects on the Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, including the Yas Marina Circuit - a Formula One venue - will be completed on time, ALDAR Properties said on Monday.

"About 60 per cent of the first phase of the projects has been completed," said Steve K.Worrel, Director Mixed Use Development, Yas Island Project.

He said about 37,000 workers are working on the island to complete the projects in time.

"The global economic meltdown has helped the projects as more workers and bidders are available now," he added.

It was announced earlier that Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Formula One race will be held in Yas Marina Circuit in November 2009.

The track will run UNDER the hotel, ticket prices will hopefully be decent, if they can keep booking companys from buying them all out and reselling

By the end of this year Yas Marina Hotel will be a must visit for every motosport fan. The iconic hotel, will be the only one in the world to have a F1 track run through it. For a good price guest of the hotel can lounge and watch hamilton and co burn up the tarmac. Taken from the march 09 copy of 4men- a suppliment of gulf news

There will actually be six hotels located around the F1 track. I too hope the tickets sell at a cheap price. I'm dying to go.
