Abu Dhabi gets ready for GT1 world racing
(0 votes, average 0 out of 5)

The FIA GT1 World Championship series will be held at the Yas Marina Circuit on April 16 and 17, when six of the world's top sportscar manufacturers - Aston Martin, Corvette, Ford, Lamborghini, Maserati and Nissan - will be seen in action.

GT1 racing involves highly tuned versions of the cars that people drive every day on the streets. A pre-race trial determines what measures need to be taken to ensure equality between the different cars before the actual race.

Twenty-four cars will take part in the opening rounds, driven by 48 of the world's leading drivers, as the championship starting here in Abu Dhabi visits four continents before finishing at the San Luis circuit in Argentina in December.
