"...Live from Yas Marina Circuit! It's the final showdown of the season...!"
The voice of the live broadcast broke with exuberance, the commentator's tone vibrant but also solemn as his words spilled across the green globe called Earth, like thunder in a calm desert.
The UAE Grand Prix, the 20th and final scheduled race of the Formula 1 calendar this season, had arrived at last. What a stretch it had been, and it was all going to end in the presence of the glowing steel structures that the marvelous Abu Dhabi's Yas Marina Circuit featured elegantly. Stunning neon reflections and pure white floodlights saturated the track in different color streaks, as the world turned its eyes once more to the final battle of machines and man.
"...We welcome you to Yas Island, under the lights. This is the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, and while the skies are clear over the Arabian Gulf tonight, the air is thick with memory, tension, and unanswered questions…."
