Because pink just isn't a color but an attitude, the 2017 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix will provide F1 drivers with a soft tone environment this year.

The Yas Marina circuit decided it was time for a change, and has thus changed the color scheme of its contours and run-off areas, switching from blue to pink - or is it fushia?

There's never been any lack of flamboyance and glamour in Abu Dhabi, but this new rosiness will undoubtedly take it all to a new level.

The race could well turn out to be the final shootout in the world championship between Sebastian Vettel and Lewis Hamilton.

Our favourite? It's got to be Force India. Because anything is possible with a little pink!
