Formula One signs 9 year contract extension with Abu Dhabi Grand Prix

Ahead of this weekend’s season finale Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, Formula 1 has announced that it has renewed its contract with Abu Dhabi Motorsports Management (ADMM) for another 9 years.

The new agreement will keep Formula 1 coming to the track for the remainder of the decade, up until 2030 inclusive, with the Yas Marina Circuit having been reconfigured ahead of this year’s race, specifically in three areas: the north hairpin (Turn 7), the south marina (beginning at Turn 11), and the hotel section (beginning at Turn 17).

Formula 1 CEO and President Stefano Domenicali :

“We are delighted to confirm that we will be racing in Abu Dhabi until 2030 under this new agreement. We are hugely looking forward to the season finale this weekend when more Formula 1 history will be made.

“The promoter, ADMM, always creates an incredible show for the final race of every F1 season and combined with the changes made to improve the racing on the Yas Marina Circuit we are excited for many years of racing in Abu Dhabi that is ahead of us.”

Saif Al Noaimi, CEO of ADMM:
