Doha, Qatar: Just when excitement levels ahead of next month’s FORMULA 1 QATAR AIRWAYS QATAR GRAND PRIX 2024 couldn’t get any higher, Lusail International Circuit (LIC) has announced that the Porsche Carrera Cup Middle East will complete the trio of support races for next month’s Formula 1 spectacular.
Taking place from November 29 to December 1, the one-make series will line up alongside the F1 Academy and FIA Formula 2 Championship for the penultimate date in the Formula 1 2024 season, in what promises to be one of the most high-octane weekends of the year.
The iconic Porsche 911 GT3 cars deliver thrilling sprints and wheel-to-wheel duels across one practice session, one qualification round, and two high-intensity races. With a grid of approximately 15 cars featuring identical technical specifications, pure skill, talent, and teamwork determine who reaches the podium.
Local fans will have plenty to cheer for as three Qatari talents take to the grid: Abdullah Al Khulaifi, Ghanim Al Maadeed, and Ibrahim Al Abdulghani will represent the host nation in what promises to be an exciting showcase of regional motorsport talent.
