F1 Abu Dhabi 2026 dates: race 3–6 Dec, stay 2–7 Dec

Race: Thursday 3 December – Sunday 6 December 2026. Stay: 02–07 December 2026 (5 nights / 6 days). That buffer is intentional: long-haul arrivals on the 2nd, a human checkout on the 7th after a Sunday night race.

Do not book a Sunday-night long-haul that checks in at a European airport on Monday morning unless you like misery. The package checkout is 7 December.

Session times follow the organizer. Yas Marina is a night event — plan dinners late.
