Racing is inherent to Formula One, but this kind of race is something different altogether. While Ferrari prepares its theme park in Abu Dhabi, in neighboring emirate Dubai they're gearing up for the grand opening of the first F1-X theme park. As we previously reported, Dubai-based development company Union Properties secured the rights from Bernie Ecclestone to construct a series of F1 theme parks around the world, and the first, in its home base, is preparing to open its doors around the same time as Ferrari World.
Recently revealed to be called F1-X, the Dubai park will be one of five parts of the MotorCity development - which will also include the Dubai Autodrome, a business park and two luxury condo complexes - forming one pavilion of Dubailand, a sort of Disneyland for the Persian Gulf. While we wait with eager anticipation to see what attractions will be featured at F1-X Dubai, we've got a few renderings in the gallery below and a video from the launch event, along with the press release, after the jump.
