The inaugural round of the revamped Giti Tire-powered Formula Regional Middle East Championship Certified by FIA (FRMEC) was dramatic. When the dust settled at the Dubai Autodrome from three sensational races with 27 high-quality, international drivers, a trio of young talents were celebrating victories – despite none of them being in leading positions in the championship.
Multi-nation Series – First in Kuwait
After two years being based exclusively in the United Arab Emirates, the Formula Regional Asian Championship decided that in 2023, it would become a multi-nation series with one of its Emirati rounds swapped for a trip to Kuwait.
For the first time, Kuwait Motor Town will host round 2 on January 27 to 28, 2023 and round 3 on January 31 to February 1, 2023.
“These high octane races provide a unique platform for Giti to test tires. In these races, Giti is able to push the tires to the extreme under the most challenging conditions. This also provides the unique opportunity for incredible achievements born from the synergy between our engineering and racing teams.” said Mr Chris Bloor, Executive Director International Sales & Marketing at Giti Tire.
