We’ve been hearing about Ferrari’s “Disneyland” style theme park for a long time now but we didn’t have any idea of how the park would look like. Thanks to “Car” we get that chance as the British Magazine managed to obtain the architect's drawings revealing the plans for the park that will be built in 2009 in Abu Dhabi, the capital(ism…) city of the United Arab Emirates.
The Italian car(?) manufacture plans to open the theme park in 2009. It will cover a massive 250,000 sqm and will feature 24 themed attractions for everyone who can afford it. According to Ferrari, attractions include a 70-metre-high G-Force Tower and a twin rollercoaster ride that for the first time allows its passengers to race against each other. Moreover, go-karting, rally driving and dune buggy tracks, and a vast array of food and beverage outlets.

A true “Disney” style park wouldn’t be complete without signature hotels, apartments, villas, a wide selection of restaurants, a retail area of about 300,000 sqm, golf courses, a water park, a tourist marina, a hotel overlooking the lagoon and numerous food and beverage outlets. Moreover, the park will also feature a motor racing circuit destined to host the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix in 2009…
