After Yas Marina Circuit started dropping clues yesterday, it’s been confirmed that synth-rockers The Killers will perform at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix after race concerts.

The Mr Brightside hitmakers will close the show on the Yasalam After Race Concerts at du Arena on Sunday December 1.

When the four-piece rock band take to the stage at du Arena later this year, fans can expect to hear an array of their singles from the last two decades including Somebody Told Me, Human and their iconic hit, Mr Brightside.

The record-breaking single spent an impressive 208 weeks in the UK singles chart, making it the longest charting single of all time.
