The 2011 Abu Dhabi GP2 Asia round was the first round of the 2011 GP2 Asia Series season. It was held on 11 and 12 February 2011 at Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

This round saw the competitive début of the new Dallara GP2/11 chassis, which was brought in as a replacement for the first-generation GP2 car, the Dallara GP2/05, which débuted in the inaugural season of the series. It was also the first race for new tyre supplier Pirelli, after Bridgestone bowed out of Formula One and the main series at the end of 2010.
