Introduction

When the sun sets, Lusail comes alive.

The Qatar Grand Prix begins as the desert light disappears. Floodlights switch on. The circuit becomes a ribbon of light.

Formula 1 runs deep into the evening — and Doha continues long after the final session.

For Lund Group clients, the weekend can extend far beyond the circuit: private aviation, premium hospitality, five-star accommodation, dedicated transportation, yacht experiences, dining, culture and desert experiences — with one concierge managing everything around your schedule.

Doha by day. Lusail by night. One Lund Group.

The penultimate round

Two races remain.

Qatar is the penultimate Grand Prix of the 2026 Formula 1 season. After Lusail, only Abu Dhabi remains. As the championship approaches its conclusion, every point can matter.

Lusail International Circuit

Built for speed. Lit for the night.

Lusail is a fast, flowing circuit defined by medium- and high-speed corners and a long main straight leading into Turn 1. At night, the entire venue changes character beneath its extensive floodlighting.

One kilometre. Full commitment.
