Muscat: The Omani-German duo enters the decisive round with strong momentum, fresh off a Gold Class Endurance Cup victory at Germany’s Nürburgring and impressive finishes in France’s Sprint Cup at Magny-Cours, where they secured second and fourth places. These results have propelled them to fifth in the Teams and Drivers category with 68.5 points.

The Valencia finale promises intense competition, with 40 cars battling for titles across four categories. Leading the Gold Class standings is Emil Frei Racing Team with 90 points, followed by Saintlock Racing Team (87.5) and Garage 59 (80), with Al Manar Racing in fifth place overall.

Al Zubair expressed confidence ahead of the race: “I am very excited to participate in the final round of the Short Course Cup, especially after our recent victory. Our goal is to achieve the best possible result and collect the largest number of points, and our momentum is strong as we approach the end of the 2025 season.”
