Lebanese rider Fadi Bakhos has returned from Manama after representing Lebanon for the first time in a round of the Bahrain Superbike Championship, organised by the international and Bahraini motorcycle federations and supported by Ducati.
Bakhos finished both races of the round, placing 14th in the first and 12th in the second. It was a strong result for his first official international race, against a field that included many experienced riders, some of whom race in Grand Prix classes.
He is now preparing for the next round on 22 April, aiming for a better result.
The Lebanese Motorcycle Club, led by Ali Dagher, the FIM representative in Lebanon, is following his progress closely, as the sport attracts growing interest from Lebanese fans of all ages.
