Formula Rossa, Steel roller coaster at Ferrari World, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates
Formula Rossa extends across 2000 meters of track, reaching heights of 52 meters and accelerating from zero to 240 kilometers per hour in under five seconds.
The roller coaster initiated operations on November 4, 2010, marking a new era in high-speed attractions by surpassing previous velocity records for amusement rides worldwide.
The design incorporates elements from Formula One racing circuits, particularly the Monza track, reflecting the strong connection between Ferrari and motorsport excellence.
All riders between 140 and 195 centimeters in height must wear protective goggles due to high velocities and potential airborne particles in the desert environment.
The hydraulic launch system generates 20,800 horsepower to propel the trains, utilizing technology similar to aircraft carrier systems for launching fighter jets.
