[Kris]

Salaam all.
long time no post , for various reasons.

anyway , long story short , its the Desert fun ( as u may have noticed ) .
i've flown out from Germany to support my buddy in the rally , quad number 74 , Seb Husseini with Team Suzuki.
you're looking for a guy that looks like a zebra on a yellow quad




been asked by a lot of family and friends the same question ,so here you go:

Tomorrow ( Sunday 28th ) at 16:00 hours opposite the Police College off interchange 4 is the prologue.
GOOD photo opp.

Monday - stage 1 is a good day to watch , because start and stop are near the Hameen truck road. At 2 points is the rally course going underneath the road.

The rally this year having new system for the safty of the rally cars and bikes drivers, where the operations room will have a big screen with the particibants icons, if the particibant stops for more than 3 minutes the icon colour will change from green to red (showing the coordinates), Operations will contact them through the radio, if no response they will send help and ampulance in case of accidents and update the team marchals.

Also, there is new alarm system which will beep in both the cars and the bikes if they gets in a diameter of 200 meters so they drive carefully and to avoid cars getting over bikes.

There is LIVE tracking for the positions and results on http://tracking.iritrack.com/ppos/dubai/ and now updated with STAGE 0

Just an update.

we officially kicked butt.

Winner M4 category with over a 2 hour lead over our nearest competitor.

Overall 10th in the moto category , which is a crazy achievment for a quad , considering how much faster the bikes are.

And last but not least , with 25 points , our rider , #74 Seb Husseini picked up his very first FIM World Champion title at just 22 years of age.

It couldnt have been possible without the support of Auto Sport L.L.C , suzuki division of al Yousuf motors & the mechanical support of ProBikes workshop.
We really worked hard.Myself and our mechanic got an average of 2 hours of sleep a day.






With the FIM world champion medal
