Do they allow anyone to bring in cameras to the F1 track?

I would like to take some photos when I visit the Abu Dhabi F1 track in the near future...

Yes it is okay to take cameras with you.

You have nice pictures, would love to see more of the race pics!

Shame you have to shoot through fences for stuff like this

Thanks Al-Wazeer

Yeah! Even those from the best seats have to shoot through the fencing.

Unfortunately, that's how it works for city circuits. In other real circuits, there's no fencing but you need really really long lenses.

What length lens is ideal for the track?

Does anyone know if the Abu Dhabi track is fenced?

I was along the race track. There's a 3 meter clearance for the public from the fencing.

I used a 70-200 2.8. I used a 1.4x TC on some of the close up shots.

I'm not sure with Abu Dhabi but it seems like there won't be fencing. Maybe just on specific areas.

The pro F1 photographers use at least 400mm lens. Paul Henri Cahier uses 600mm. Darren Heath has at least a 400mm.
