Highly pleasant viewing conditions are anticipated for this weekend’s Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, with rain certainly no factor for Yas Marina’s third Formula 1 event.
The UAE round is unique in that it is the only twilight race on the calendar, with the red lights going out shortly before dusk and the chequered flag falling under floodlights.
Ambient daytime temperatures will remain in the high 20s across the weekend, never falling any lower than 15°C (59°F) at night, with good visibility throughout. A 10mph wind speed of Thursday will gradually drop to just 6mph by race day.
This weekend marks the first time that Abu Dhabi has not hosted a season’s final race since it joined the calendar; after Sebastian Vettel led home a dicing Mark Webber and Jenson Button in 2009, the German dramatically sealed a maiden title last year.
