Abu Dhabi to be 2010 season finale

By on

After hosting its first ever Formula One Grand Prix in 2009, Abu Dhabi will now also close the 2010 season after a late date change agreed in today's WMSC meeting. Brazil was initially scheduled as the last GP, but the events were switched to avoid a date class with the Brazilian presidential elections.
