Tickets have sold out for the season finale in Abu Dhabi, according to the Yas Marina circuit organizers.
All 50,000 seats will be filled for the final round of the 2009 formula one world championship and the sport inaugural day/night race.
"We've had an amazing response locally, nationally and internationally and every ticket has been sold," said Yas Marina circuit CEO Richard Cregan.
"This will be an historic race of firsts: the first F1 race at Yas Marina circuit; the first day into evening F1 race - with only one driver who will forever be recognised in F1 history as the winner of the inaugural Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
"For all the fans attending the event, we aim to give them a truly memorable experience."
Going into Abu Dhabi, although Jenson Button has already clinched the drivers' crown and Brawn GP the constructors', the battle for second place between Rubens Barrichello and Sebastien Vettel in the drivers' championship standings will be fought out, while McLaren and Ferrari will be trying to secure third place in the constructors'.
