ANKARA (AA) – Formula 1 will keep the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix in its calendar until 2030 as the parties renewed a deal on Thursday.

"We are delighted to confirm that we will be racing in Abu Dhabi until 2030 under this new agreement. We are hugely looking forward to the season finale this weekend when more Formula 1 history will be made," Formula 1 CEO and President Stefano Domenicali said.

The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix has joined the F1 calendar in 2009 as the Yas Marina Circuit hosts the race.

Sunday's Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, which is the 22nd race of this year and also the final round in the 2021 World Championship, will name this year's champion.

The 2021 title contenders, Red Bull Racing Honda's Dutch driver Max Verstappen and Mercedes' British star Lewis Hamilton collected 369.5 points each before this weekend's race in the United Arab Emirates.
