  • Pedal to the metal: Yas Racing Series.

    Battle lines will be redrawn this weekend in the fourth and final round of Yas Racing Series.

    Marking the end of Yas Marina Circuit’s busy racing season, this round’s highlights will include the return of the production-based sports car series UAE Time Attack as drivers compete for the fastest lap, along with modified racing thrills in the Middle East Radical Cup.

    Also, on Friday, the fifth and sixth rounds of the TRD 86 Cup are expected to deliver a spectacular ending to what has been a competitive series so far. 

    Since the first round in December, the UAE-based drivers have gone bumper to bumper in a bid for the top spot on the leaderboard.

    Currently, at the top of the driver’s table, Karim Al Azhari is leading with 160 points, with Ahmed Al Melahi in second on 122 points, and Sam Taheri close behind on 114 points.

    Following them is Tom Verkooien on 88 points, Shihab Al Fahim (78 points), Shibin Yousef (68), Mohammed Abdul Ghaffar (54), Edy Saaiby (52) and Abdullah Ali Al Khefali (50) .

    With 20 points for first place, two straight wins from any of these drivers could provide a last-minute upset in the battle for second and third.

    For those wishing to attend the thrilling races, tickets for the Yas Racing Series grand finale at Yas Marina Circuit are available for Dh25, with the added value of a wide range of off-track entertainment for all ages.
