Abu Dhabi

The fifth Abu Dhabi GP, the first race alphabetically and another track in which Vettel has been most successful.

A surprisingly action packed Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, a race that previously has only been won from the front row. Pole position doesn't seem to be a good place to be in Abu Dhabi either, in 2009 Hamilton started on pole and retired on lap 19, in 2011 Vettel on pole, retired on lap 1 after a puncture and now again in 2012 with Hamilton on pole, retired on lap 19, again.

The Yas Marina Circuit in the United Arab Emirates is a 5.554km circuit, a 50 lap race with a race length of 305.470km. In the three races at the circuit all have been won from the front row, but only one from pole position, which was Sebastian Vettel in 2010. There are a total of 21 corners, which is the third most of any track on the grid.

Accurate information on the lengths of straights in Formula One is hard to come by, often with very different lengths from different websites and sources, so I have done my best to find the real lengths of the longest straights from reliable sources.
