F1 teams arrive for season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix

WAM

All 10 teams have arrived for the Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix as drivers prepare to compete for the final time in 2024’s record-breaking race calendar.

Yas Marina Circuit welcomed the teams just days after the Qatar Grand Prix which was won by Max Verstappen, his ninth victory of the season.

Although Verstappen and his Red Bull team secured the drivers’ title in Las Vegas after a hard-fought campaign, the 2024 F1 World Constructors Championship is still up for grabs, and there will be no shortage of visitors to the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, with the event expected to welcome 170,000 fans – its largest ever attendance.

There’s all to play for at the Abu Dhabi GP for McLaren and Ferrari – with only 21 points separating first and second place on the constructors’ leaderboard. Red Bull should maintain their third place lead over Mercedes, with a tight midfield offering plenty of scope for last-minute surprises lower down the order.
