You don't have to be a good driver to race "hi-spec GT cars" in other parts of the world, you just need a deep pocket, you know..... Porsche GT3 Cup Challenge Middle East and what not.
Maybe the car sucked, but I just don't see how professional drivers can misjudge cornering speeds by 20kph and turn in right in the middle on the track.
The guy who won the race has no race experience before this series.
The second place man (shaikh hamad bin isa al khalifa) is apparently the prime minister of Qatar!
Third place man (shaikh hamad bin isa al khalifa)....I can't find any racing profile of him outside this series.....
last series winner and aka the man to beat is Raed Raffii - Racing career highlights:Thunder Arabia Middle Eastern champion 2005. (wtf? is that)
So professional drivers my ass.
And that driving coach is very appreciative with his customers apparently, not hard to imagine when you are serving billionares play boy racers.
There's PLENTY more on that GTChannel, channel, on youtube, they are uploading FULL episodes... definately a great thing to have on your subscriptions.
