Where fast cars meet fashion, the high-octane Formula 1 weekend is as much about what’s happening off the circuit as on and as the worlds only hotel situated in the middle of a Formula 1 track, Yas Viceroy is perfectly positioned to soak up the glamour and style. Expect poolside parties and international club nights for stylish celebrations that go on beyond the racing.
