(VIDEO) Michael Essa & Mike Whiddett @ Yas Marina in Dubai
Formula Drift on Yas Marina Circuit for the first time

I would push to say that this track will supplant Ebisu as the 'holy land' of drifting in a few years time.

The track looks AMAZING!

Ehh, I think ebisu gets its name partly to the fact anyone and everyone has drifted there. Unless they start letting locals on that billion dollar circuit I wouldn't start putting such a name lol.

Cool action

Getting Arab Money!

I had a feeling that the last turn would end up being where they would drift on Yas. It's the most spectator friendly and does have a good view for most of the section they will be drifting on.

Looks like it's going to be an amazing event.

That is one beautiful track. I can't wait.

I wish we had a track like that in California.

The track width looks pretty big too they have a lot of room to play. Can't wait to watch this on the driftstream.

I hope they use both switch backs and not just the second one then hairpin.
