The UAE’s Mohammed Al Balooshi, Saudi Arabia’s Haitham Al Tuwaijri and Qatar’s Ahmed Al Kuwari sealed outright victories in the motorcycle, quad and SSV sections of the Qatar International Baja after the third desert selective section yesterday.
After three days of exhilarating action in the Qatari desert, the Qatar International Baja came to a befitting end yesterday at the Al Bayt Stadium in Al Khor.
Qatar-based Australian Martin Chalmers, Saudi Arabia’s Haitham Al Tuwaijri and Qatar’s Ahmed Al Kuwari recorded the fastest times in the motorcycle, quad and SSV categories on the second desert stage of the Qatar International Baja yesterday.
MX Ride Dubai’s Mohammed Al Balooshi will be hoping to extend his eight-point lead in the FIM Bajas World Cup’s 450cc category when he starts as pre-event favourite to win the motorcycle section at this weekend’s Qatar International Baja, the new fifth round of the series.
