The 2024 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix (officially known as the Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 2024) was a Formula One motor race that was held on 8 December 2024 at the Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. It was the twenty-fourth and final race of the 2024 Formula One World Championship.

Lando Norris of McLaren took pole position for the race, which he then proceeded to convert to a victory. Norris' victory helped his team take their ninth World Constructors' Championship title, and the first since 1998. Ferrari's Carlos Sainz Jr. came in second in his last race for Ferrari ahead of his teammate, Charles Leclerc. This was the final Formula One race for Valtteri Bottas, Zhou Guanyu, Franco Colapinto, Sergio Pérez, and Kevin Magnussen. It was also Lewis Hamilton's last race start for Mercedes before moving to Ferrari in 2025, ending the most successful driver-team partnership in Formula One history.

Result Description
Polesitter Lando Norris kept the lead, while his teammate Oscar Piastri was tagged into a spin by Red Bull's Max Verstappen into turn 1. Meanwhile, Verstappen's teammate, Sergio Pérez, was also spun by Valtteri Bottas. On lap 3, Piastri made contact with Franco Colapinto, but Piastri did not suffer any damage, causing Colapinto to slow down to let Piastri through. His race engineer reported the collision at the start and Verstappen was given a ten-second time penalty. After Pérez was spun by Bottas, he retired.

Charles Leclerc, who started 19th due to serving a ten-place grid penalty, had a good start: by the end of lap 1, he moved up to eighth, and on lap 7, he overtook Nico Hülkenberg, then Fernando Alonso three laps later. Verstappen also made the move on Alonso two laps later, in which the Dutchman progressed to seventh, while the Spaniard dropped to eighth. During lap 24, Liam Lawson was called in for a pit stop on hard tyres, but his front-left tyres were not fitted properly as the jackman dropped Lawson's car. On the same lap, Leclerc progressed by overtaking Pierre Gasly, as did Russell on lap 27. However, on lap 31, Kevin Magnussen was spun by Bottas in the same corner, in a similar move what he did with Pérez, causing Bottas to lose half of his front wing and sustaining a puncture.

Verstappen overtook Alonso again and served his penalty in the past couple of laps, while progressing by overtaking his old Red Bull teammate Pierre Gasly. Piastri, now running in twelfth, made a mistake while attempting to make a move on Yuki Tsunoda. Piastri made up a place on the Japanese driver on lap 49, and then five laps later, he took the last point position, tenth place, by overtaking Alexander Albon. Hamilton, on the final lap, was chasing his teammate George Russell. The race was won by polesitter Norris. Norris' victory allowed his team, McLaren, to win the Constructors' Championship for the first time in 26 years. The podium was completed by Carlos Sainz Jr. in second, his last podium finish for Ferrari, and Leclerc in third. Some time after Norris had taken the chequered flag to win the race, Hamilton and Russell battled for fourth place. The two almost made contact, but Hamilton passed Russell on the outside of turn 9 and got ahead, completing his final stint with Mercedes.
