I'm going - my Wife has bought me a week's trip to Dubai for my 30th. We're staying at the Holiday Inn Dubai-Al Barsha, with 3 day pass tickets for the race. Think we're going to get a taxi to the circuit each day. Not sure I fancy renting and driving in Dubai, or Abu Dhabi, that weekend!

Can't wait!!

I didn't realise until yesterday that they are going to be racing from sunset into the night. It is going to be awesome to watch with a mellow sun setting in the background....

Etihad do £250 return to Abu Dhabi sometimes - Mon/Tues are their deal days IIRC.

Qatar Airways also do some of the cheapest deals and it's a decent airline...
