Formula Rossa

Formula Rossa, located in the United Arab Emirates, holds the title of the world's fastest roller coaster, a crown jewel in the thrilling realm of amusement rides. Situated within Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, this adrenaline-pumping attraction propels riders to a breathtaking speed of 240 kilometers per hour (150 mph) in just 4.9 seconds, simulating the exhilarating sensation of being in a Formula 1 car.

Inaugurated in November 2010, Formula Rossa dominates the landscape of this motorsport-inspired theme park, offering an unparalleled experience for thrill-seekers. The roller coaster's track stretches 2.2 kilometers, providing a dynamic journey that includes sharp turns and sudden drops, all while guests are securely strapped into seats designed to mimic the sleek aesthetic of a Ferrari racing vehicle.

Guests are required to wear protective glasses due to the high speeds and the potential for airborne particles, further adding to the authenticity of a high-octane racing experience. The ride's impressive hydraulic launch system catapults the coaster at a force that exceeds 1.7 Gs, pushing the limits of what is physically tolerable and ensuring an unforgettable ride.
