The 2011 GP2 Final was a special round of the 2011 GP2 Series, supporting the 2011 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix on 12 and 13 November 2011. The race was originally scheduled to be the first round of the 2012 GP2 Asia championship, but with the GP2 Asia series being discontinued and absorbed into its parent series, [1] the race was added to the GP2 Series calendar as a non-championship round.
As the race was a non-championship event, several teams elected to run guest drivers in the place of their regular drivers.
