The Dubai Autodrome is an FIA sanctioned 5.39 km motorsports circuit located in Dubailand, Dubai, United Arab Emirates.  Opened in October 2004 with the final round of the 2004 Formula Renault V6 Eurocup season, Dubai Autodrome was the first part of the Dubai Motor City development that was available for use.  The venue hosted the December 2005 A1 Grand Prix and the FIA GT Championship from 2004 to 2006.  The Dubai Autodrome was the location of the Fast Forward task during Season 15 for the reality television show The Amazing Race.  The track record at the longest configuration was set by Kamui Kobayashi (DAMS) with a time of 1:41.220 in a GP2 Asia car.  The circuit was designed by Clive Bowen of Apex Circuit Design.

Since 2006 the Autodrome has been home to the Dubai 24 Hour, a sports car and touring car automobile endurance race open to both professional and semi-professional teams.

The 5.39km Dubai Autodrome circuit is one of the most modern in the world; it is also one of the most challenging, as it has a combination of high-speed straights and technical corners.  The venue is part of the Union Properties Motorcity development in the greater Dubailand area.  The circuit, which contains six different configurations, is designed to allow three racing circuits to operate simultaneously, safely and independently from each other.  The result presents circuit users with unparalleled options.
