Abu Dhabi to host F1 In Schools? World Finals 2012

F1 in Schools? have announced their eighth World Finals will be held in Abu Dhabi from October 29-31, coinciding with the 2012 Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Over 250 students from around the world are expected to attend the event after winning the National Finals in their home countries.

The educational initiative, which takes place in over 40 countries, sees students use CAD/CAM software to design, build and test a balsawood model F1 car of the future, powered by compressed air. This year's World Finals will be fought out at the Yas Marina Circuit and Ferrari World Abu Dhabi.

Calum is part of this year's BSAK team. The team have been invited along to the whole F1 weekend, along with a parent (Karen didn't have a chance). Our tickets arrived today, which includes the Kylie and Nickleback concerts.
