Posted on November 2nd, 2009 by Editorial Staff in Auto Tech, Latest News

Get ready Ferrari fans. Known as the Ferrari World Abu Dhabi and expected to arrive next year is the world’s first Ferrari theme park. It will feature an iconic sleek red roof that’s said to be directly inspired by the classic double curve side profile of the Ferrari GT body, spanning 2,152,782 square feet and carrying the largest Ferrari logo ever created.

There will be a number of attractions, including rides for children of all ages and the world’s fastest rollercoaster, travelling at speeds exceeding 124 mph. Another ride will rocket passengers through the roof and to a height of 203 feet to simulate the G-forces experienced by a drivers in an F1 car.

For those who want to punch this into your sat-navs right away, the Ferrari World will be on Yas Island on the North East side of Abu Dhabi’s mainland, which is a convenient 10-minute drive from Abu Dhabi International Airport and 50 minutes from Yas Marina Circuit, which will host the inaugural Abu Dhabi GP later this year.
