Take the top twelve pilots in the world to eight of the most stunning cities around the globe. Add tight twisting race tracks, planes flying close to 400 km/h, throw in 12Gs for good measure and you've got the 2008 Red Bull Air Race World Championship spectacle of high drama and amazing skill.

Watch the very best moments from the opening race in Abu Dhabi to the first-ever doubleheader taking place in the United States in San Diego and Detroit.
