GP2 @ Yas Marina, Abu Dhabi

What an interesting this past weekend has been, I was fortunate enough to have worked as a Scrutineer for this GP2 event. As you can see I have spent most of time snapping pix & vids though I fear they might not call me back again haha either ways, enjoy the eye candy.. Video's will be coming up shortly.

GP2 Asia Series started off with Chevy Lumina V8s (Known as Holden in Australia), then Porsche GT3, then finally the GP2s.





































That sounded & smelt good



Making sure all GP2 cars abided to FIA rules after qualifying round





Too much negative camber... Riding VIP?















Some chevy's thought it would be fun to play bumper cars











I love how they drive past you like you're not even standing there





Not all of them made it safely out of there

This guy damaged his front suspension which caused his Front-Right tire to lift of like that

What was the weather like? I heard it was quite windy. Not good news for lightweight race cars.

As you can tell from the damages, cars were all over the place from the wind blowing sand all over the track lol
