1. Where does it take place?
   Ok, we've just told you this Grand Prix competition is going to take place in Saudi Arabia, but where exactly is it going to happen? You know that Saudi Arabia can boast very large metro areas and it's not shocking that the Nation's first Grand Prix is expected to take place in Saudi Arabia's second-largest city by population, Jeddah. In particular, the event will be performed on the west coast of Saudi Arabia, on a street track, although there are projects for the first Grand Prix to move a different and dedicated circuit for the next events.

2. Why in Jeddah?
   You may wonder why the organizers of the first Grand Prix in Saudi Arabia decided to set it in Jeddah. Take as an answer the fact that Jeddah looks pretty colorful and lively, it's located on the coast of the Red Sea and this should be enough for you to imagine how beautiful this side of Jeddah can be. Also, the last part of the race track is thought to be set on the Corniche, which is a coastal area of the city (this information is to be confirmed yet, though). Anyway, Jeddah offers an amazing background for this thrilling race event.

3. More about the circuit
   We've mentioned above that the race track will take place on the west coast of Jeddah, but we are still waiting to know where the last part of the race will actually be set by the race organizers. As a general idea, the track will include plenty of long straights alternated with tight corners, which is what should ensure a stunning race.

4. When will Saudi Arabia's first Grand Prix take place?
   Although the organizers haven't shared their final decision about this point, it seems that the race will take place by night under the breath-taking background of Jeddah's coastal lights. Try to figure it out… this scenery is going to create a special atmosphere all around the race.

5. Saudi Arabia's motorsport heritage
   For those of you who are wondering what Saudi Arabia's motorsport heritage could be, here's an answer. Yeah, it's the first time Saudi Arabia hosts an F1 competition, but the country has a relationship with the motorsport industry since 1978 when Saudi's airline along with other local businesses sponsored Williams. This fact represents an important milestone in the history of Williams. After that, Williams won its first world championship two years later in 1980 with Alan Jones.
   Other connections between Saudi Arabia and the motorsport world include participation in hosting Formula E and Dakar Rally. Also, Saudi Aramco (the world's biggest company of integrated energy and chemicals) is a partner in global F1. Rumors say that this partnership could help develop projects for power-unit-fuelled racing cars in the future.

6. Are there any drivers in Saudi Arabia?
   Up to the present day, we don't have any racing car drivers from Saudi Arabia, at least nobody who has ever raced in F1. However, a Saudi woman called Aseel Al-Hamad drove a Renault F1 car at the 2018 French Grand Prix. It happened the same day the Saudi government allowed women to get a driving license.

Saudi Arabia's first Grand Prix is an important event that unifies different cultures and communities through the same passion for motorsport competitions.
