Historic Dubai Grand Prix set to take place at Autodrome
Back in 1981, the Dubai Autodrome facility hosted the country’s first ever Grand Prix as part of the nation’s 10th Anniversary. Then Chief of Police, the 28-year-old Dhahi Khalfan Tamin and Major Saeed Khalfan, who was also the Chairman of Al Nasr Motor Sports Club, approached Marin Hone to run a one-off Dubai Grand Prix with global famous drivers including Nigel Mansell, Juan Manuel Fangio, and Stirling Moss, among others. This event stirred great interest in racing enthusiasts and has successfully put Dubai’s name on the region’s history of motorsport.
