Abu Dhabi F1 2021McLaren F1 Experience

The Formula 1™ calendar is a captivating showcase of the world’s most charismatic destinations. From the chic European cities of Barcelona, Monaco, Budapest and Milan, to the exotic excitement of Singapore and Japan; from the opulence of Abu Dhabi and Bahrain to the quirkiness of Austin and Mexico City. For those who love racing in its purest form there are the most revered of racing circuits at Spa, Silverstone and Sao Paulo.

Based within the Formula One™ Paddock Club, the McLaren Formula 1™ Experience was founded in 1989 and has played host exclusively to the McLaren Partners’ business leaders and VIPs ever since. The combination of prime access, the finest service, exquisite cuisine and breath taking views of the racing redefined a Formula 1™ weekend. McLaren invite you to explore this fascinating world.

The McLaren Formula 1™ Experience private suite or tables sit above the team garages overlooking the pit lane with views of the start finish line. From here guests can experience the thrill of the race build up, the intensity of each pit stop and the sheer excitement of watching the winner take the chequered flag. It is, without doubt, an unrivalled and privileged view.

Guests are welcomed to the McLaren Formula 1 Experience from first thing in the morning until the end of the racing day. Guests will arrive, via dedicated VIP guest routes, into the centre of the circuit to an exclusive parking area. On arrival, you will be presented with a gift bag before being directed to your table, where the McLaren hospitality team will personally welcome you. A full breakfast along with pastries freshly made by the Paddock Club’s own Chefs de Partie is offered to start the day.

Each day the McLaren Formula 1 Experience is punctuated with driver interviews using the Pit Link, broadcasting a live two-way interaction between the McLaren Garage and McLaren Paddock Club Suite. Senior Management interviews will also be conducted via the pit link enabling guests to gain unique insights into Formula 1 and the race weekend strategy.
