Yas Marina Circuit, Abu Dhabi, UAE, July 15, 2021: Yas Marina Circuit will host FIA Formula 4 UAE Championship powered by Abarth race action as part of this year’s FORMULA 1 ETIHAD AIRWAYS ABU DHABI GRAND PRIX.

For the second time in the space of three years, a non-point scoring Trophy Round of F4 UAE will take place over the course of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Race Weekend, prior to the sixth season of the championship getting underway in January 2022.

The new season will see F4UAE debuting the “second generation” T-421 Tatuus race car, with increased support from technical partners Tatuus and Autotecnica Motori. Yas Marina Circuit previously hosted a non-championship F4UAE support event ahead of the FORMULA 1 ETIHAD AIRWAYS ABU DHABI GRAND PRIX in 2019, and this time around drivers will be tasked with navigating the new-look track, which is currently undergoing modification work in order to increase opportunities for overtaking and enhance the overall race spectacle.

In 2019, both Amna and Hamda Al Qubaisi took part in the F4UAE Trophy Round, with the former becoming the first Arab woman to win an FIA single-seater race following a brilliant performance. The second of two races was won by Alex Connor.

Saif Al Noaimi, Acting CEO, Abu Dhabi Motorsports Management, said: “We are delighted to host a non-championship Trophy Round of the FIA Formula 4 UAE Championship a
