What's the best way to end a brilliant Formula 1 season? A trip to the exhilarating Yas Marina Circuit. Sarcasm aside, Yas Marina is one of the best looking circuits on the calendar, which unfortunately is about its only selling point. Some good turns to start the lap, a chicane into a hairpin that separates cars, two wiggly straights and then a section of single-file turns that spreads the cars out is the entire, long final sector. It's had its moments, but most of the "memorable" races from this track seem to involve title deciders where the title is decided because it's impossible to overtake around here. There are still questions over whether Lewis Hamilton will be able to race this weekend pending multiple clear COVID tests and the ability to travel to Abu Dhabi in time, so George Russell might get a second chance in the Mercedes. There's a lot still to be decided, especially in the Constructors Championship, and still questions before cars even turn a wheel on Friday. We've had memorable moments in 2020, let's hope we don't end on a damp squib at the UNITED ARAB EMIRATES EMIRATI ABU DHABI GRAND PRIX!
