Dubai - Part III - Formula One

This is a very special blog....for a very special friend...Dennis - for you!!!

Now Formula One racing is big around the world....and of course it could be no bigger than here in the UAE.  This Formula One track is used for the race here in November each year.  It is built around a hotel (The Yaz Hotel) ..




and while only 50,000 are accommodated in the racing facility...they are accommodated in style...and many arrive by yacht....


So....let's go racing...


The track winds its way around the hotel...as these photos show from the terrace of the hotel...




and here is the pit boss of the day...


The track from a different vantage point...and while at this part of the track we could hear in the background cars testing portions of the track....




So my friend Dennis and everyone else who is into motor sports I hope you enjoy these photos...and while I was unable to get Dario's autograph...I did see his "turf".....and I leave with just a couple more....
