ABU DHABI, UAE – The 2023/24 Asian Le Mans Series ends at Yas Marina this weekend, with Al-Manar Racing by Getspeed aiming to win the GT Team and Driver Trophies over two four-hour races on February 10–11.
Oman’s Al-Faisal Al-Zubair, Germany’s Fabian Schiller and China’s Anthony Liu share the Mercedes-AMG GT3 Evo and want to build on second place in last weekend’s third race in Dubai. That result left Al-Zubair and Schiller third in the drivers’ standings behind Pure Rxcing’s Klaus Bachler, Joel Sturm and Alex Malykhin (Porsche 911 GT3 R) and Saintéloc Racing’s Christopher Haase, Gilles Magnus and Alban Varutti.
Pure Rxcing leads the Teams’ title by 14 points from Saintéloc, with Al-Manar Racing by Getspeed just one point further back.
We are currently third in the championship, just one point behind second and 14 behind the leaders, so Abu Dhabi will be all or nothing for us. We aim to go for two wins. We know it will be difficult but we will try our best.
