Famed Grand Prix Photographer Shares His Favourite Shots From The #ABUDHABIGP

For more than two decades Darren Heath has been the go-to photographer for Grands Prix, expertly capturing the thrills, passions and energy of races from Luxembourg to Singapore.

But for all his years of travelling the world and countless iconic photographs, there’s something about Yas Marina Circuit that will always be special to Heath.

“It’s unique. Nowhere else do F1Ò cars race around and underneath a gorgeously designed building that changes colour in the early evening before twinkling spectacularly. Yas Marina Circuit offers the photographer a unique opportunity to shoot the cars. It really is like being on the set of a science-fiction movie,” said Heath.

“During race weekend one can shoot the cars silhouetted against a setting sun. As the sun’s glow fades, the track’s lights sparkle below a sky changing from orange to red, to violet to purple, to a deep dark blue and finally to black.”
