Built according to the stringent requirements of the FIA, the Dubai Autodrome is not just your average motor racing track. As the first FIA-approved circuit to integrate wide asphalt run-off regions, the 5.39km track is also one of the most technically difficult, high-speed race venues in the world. Complete with six diverse configurations that permit three circuits to function entirely independently at the same time, other highlights include a two floor ultra modern grandstand facing complex, a timekeeping room, pit complex, media centre, race/safety control room and of course VIP suites. The digital surveillance network in the Dubai Autodrome is also impressive for its all encompassing view of the track while the CCTV system connected to the race/safety control room record every minute detail of the action taking place on the track.

Perhaps the most popular attraction at the Dubai Autodrome is its first of its kind VIP suites that affords spectators an unparalleled view of the action from literally metres away from the track. The venue’s Media Centre also encompasses sophisticated computer and fax capabilities and individual ISDN lines and other amenities that meet the standards of local and international press personalities. The Pit Complex is also worth the visit as it houses 30 team garages as well as a comfortable traditional racing paddock which serves as a hospitality point for staffers and team members. The karting track at Kartdrome is another preferred location among seasoned guests who tour this mega sporting arena which also doubles as a concert hall and a popular venue for motor exhibitions, conferences business events and workshops.

Visitors must also drop by the Autodrome’s Race and Driving School which offers budding drivers, amateurs and interested parties with the technical know-how on reaching the finish line as professionals do. The programs conducted by the institution encompasses practical and theoretical knowledge of motor sports while students also get to clock in real time at the circuit that played host to the 2004 Formula Renault V6 Euro cup season final round.
