Watch the 2026 F1 season finale at Yas Marina Circuit, from grandstand seats to Yacht Club and Paddock Club hospitality, with curated Yas Island and Dubai add-ons from India.
From the Yas Marina Hotel grandstand to a yacht in the harbour, here is how we put you trackside for the 2026 season finale.

Reserved seats under the colour-shifting W Abu Dhabi hotel, the only F1 hotel that arches directly over the circuit. You see the harbour chicane, the sunset transition from day to night around lap 20, and the marina filled with yachts moored for the weekend.

Trackside hospitality with open-bar service, Emirati and international fine dining, pit walks on Thursday and harbour-side terraces with the sunset over the Gulf. Yacht Club takes it onto the water itself, moored against the marina wall with the cars two metres away.

Pair race weekend with Yas Island and a Dubai stopover. Stays at W Abu Dhabi above the track, Ferrari World and Yas Waterworld, Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque at golden hour, Louvre Abu Dhabi, then a 90-minute drive to Dubai for Burj Khalifa, Palm Jumeirah and the Dubai Mall.

Where the race lives
Yas Marina Circuit is 5.281 km on Yas Island, run for 58 laps in a day-to-night twilight slot. The 2021 redesign opened up Turn 5 to a long banked left and shortened the Hairpin sequence, lifting average speeds and overtaking counts. Top speeds around 320 km/h, lights out roughly 5 pm local with the sun setting at lap 20.
Why this race matters
The season finale. Driver and constructor titles have been settled here in 2010, 2014, 2016 and 2021, the last under a yellow-flag controversy that still echoes. The Yacht Club moors against the harbour wall, Ferrari World sits across the road, and the Yasalam after-race concerts have headlined Eminem, Coldplay and Travis Scott.
For Indian fans
Early December weather sits around 25°C by day, perfect for the twilight slot. UAE e-visa for Indians is easy (14 or 30-day options, around three working days). The race is the most convenient F1 weekend on the calendar, direct flights from Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Kochi and four more, and a Dubai stopover adds a full city break.
