How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
Yas Marina Circuit came to Gran Turismo 7 in 2025. The game shows the track at night under floodlights, winding past the marina and under the hotel that spans the circuit, its roof lit in shifting colours.
The real place
Yas Marina opened in 2009 on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi and hosts the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, which starts in daylight and finishes under lights. The track runs beneath the W Abu Dhabi hotel, whose curved roof of glass panels can glow in colour at night.
Visiting
Yas Island also has Ferrari World and other theme parks next to the circuit. Outside race weekend Yas Marina offers driving experiences and public evenings when you can cycle or run the track; check the official site for times.
