Live shots of the action were shown so that they reflected perfectly on the facade of the Saudi Arabia pavilion, which is covered in mirrors.

The spectacular showing drew crowds of fans to watch the Formula One STC Saudi Arabian Grand Prix 2021, which was broadcast on the enormous screen between 9.30pm and 11.30pm UAE time.
