Qatar's Lusail International Circuit, a stone's throw from Doha, was whipped up in just over a year to welcome MotoGP fans in 2004. Fast forward to 2021, and voilà, Qatar's debut in the FIA Formula One World Championship, with a bonus 10-year deal starting 2023.

The circuit? A 5.4-km thrill ride designed for the two-wheeled daredevils but equally exhilarating for the four-wheeled speedsters. It boasts a main straight over a kilometer long—perfect for playing 'catch me if you can' into Turn 1.

Why visit? Well, if the idea of swapping your winter woolies for shorts in November tickles your fancy, Qatar's balmy 28-degree weather won't disappoint. It's an outdoor enthusiast's dream—think karting at Lusail, dune bashing, or camel trekking. For more adventures, our Event Guide's got you covered.

Best seat in the house? The Main Grandstand, where you can soak up the buzz of the start-finish straight, the pits, and the garages. Or, for a front-row seat to the opening act, snag a spot at the T2 Grandstand.

Outstanding questions for the season:

  • Who will win the Constructors Title?
  • Can Lando hold on to finish 2nd in the Championship?
  • Will Sauber really go an entire season without scoring a single point?

F2 back this weekend as well with a very tight title fight between Sauber bound Gabriel Bortoletto (169.5 points) and Isack Hadjar (165 points) who could be in F1 next season with Red Bull I guess....
