Abu Dhabi's Yas Marina Circuit has undergone several major changes ahead of the 2021 event, making for a much faster lap.
A new challenge awaits the F1 field at this year's Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, with a host of changes being made to the Yas Marina Circuit in recent months.
In a bid to open up the track and increase speeds, chicanes have been removed, while several corners have been reprofiled, restructured and resurfaced - resulting in a lap time reduction of around 14 seconds.
Ex-F1 driver turned pundit Karun Chandhok is your guide for a lap of the updated track.
