The Yas Marina Circuit is a Grade 1 FIA-certified motor racing facility and the venue for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. The circuit was designed by Hermann Tilke, and is situated on Yas Island, about 30 minutes from the capital of the UAE, Abu Dhabi. Yas Marina is the second Formula 1® track in the Middle East, with the first being in Bahrain. A two-day GP2 Asia Series test was held to officially open the circuit, which was held a week before the 2009 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. It also hosted the opening event for the Australian V8 SuperCars series, the Yas V8 400, in February 2010. Outside motorsport the circuit was used for the final stage of the inaugural Abu Dhabi Tour cycle race in 2015. The circuit has FIA Grade 1 license.
In Real Racing 3, the player can only race on the Grand Prix Circuit.

Trivia[]
- This track was added in the Formula 1 Update (v8.0) of November 2019.
- From Update 8.0 to Update 10.6, this track was the location for the tutorial at the start of the race. The race takes place at night, with the F1® DEBUT CAR. This is no longer the case in Update 10.7, as the tutorial returns to Laguna Seca in the Porsche 911 GT3 RS.
- This is the first circuit in the game to be exclusive to a certain race series.
- For some reason, the sky and track lighting in the 'Evening' version of this track is the 'Afternoon' version.
