Bassam < Fahad > me

One of the best races I’ve ever had. Altho lost two positions to Fahad & Bassam, but What a race! Fantastic drive… I’m sure that all three of our cars passed the checkered flag all in less than 1 sec apart. I’ve took couple of risks on some corners, it was very temptin.. but didn’t work. Saw couple of potential fast corners, but it was difficult to pass by. Over all, I liked this race much better than yesterday just because I saw Buz and Fahad battle all the way to the final lap. Great race guys.
It was a very busy weekend, with so many things have been accomplished, and many good news too. El7imdella

One of those days that you don’t expect anything special, and especially ending up First place on first race! Just can’t believe it!!!! Big thank you for Bahrain organizers, Gulf Sport and to my HUGE support team Farshid, Ali and Mohamed who had joined me from Dubai just to see the race. Tomorrow I will be starting on pole position, quite exciting. The pressure is ON. Should keep it cool and low tomorrow. Might be distracted by Stanely or Buz on my tail. Who knows….. Good luck guys. Sleep well.

Next to the Bahrain Crown Prince Sheikh Salman bi Hamad Al Khalifa.
Thanks guys for coming and showing your support. One more race to go.

Arrived early morning for the qualification run, and I am ‘okay’ to see myself on second raw. As I expected, my timing is way off the lead drivers by 3 seconds…. hummmm… The track/car are amazing today, after a loooong summer break, finally feels good to be back behind the wheel. Finished 4th, and thats my position for later on today’s race at 16:20. Wish me the best of luck. Inshala

First day, and here we are for my first test of the season. I’m not very sure what to expect between the high competitors, especially of those drivers that are couple of seconds faster than me. I am really exhausted now. Get some rest, and prepare for tomorrows qualification.

Getting ready and preparing my camera gears. Tomorrow will be the first day in Umm Sequiemm. Thanks Umair for the Media pass.

They are famous for building a powerful scaffolding with Land Rover bodies “Wildcat 100 YouTube” With Nemesis, it promises another level of off road & Rally or even a Dakar. For about 700KDHS, this box’cy body, 4×4 tires with lift kit will put 1.2mDhs Aston and other sport cars to a shame on Sheikh Zayed Highway. (more…)

Dear Autodrome,

Our last race season, we ( My brother and I) had a great time racing here in Dubai in Autodrome. We usually had Thursday/Friday as a weekend. Thursday used to be the test/practice day, and Friday was Qualify/Race. Thursday is a good day, because we are free all day, but Fridays are always had a mid day prayers, which should not be missed.

On Friday, we have to cut our day, and leave the track for Juma’a “Friday Prayers” and then quickly head back to track so that we don’t miss our races. By changing to our racing suits and jumping into our racing cars quickly was not part of the race event! It was very frustrating as (more…)
