Doha, Qatar — The Qatar Motor and Motorcycle Federation (QMMF) has successfully concluded a two-day Off-Road Shoot-Out, held to evaluate national drivers for potential selection into the Qatar Motorsports Academy and to represent the Qatar National Team.
The program took place over two days:
• Day 1 at the Academy building in Lusail International Circuit, where drivers completed physical assessments, cognitive testing, and theoretical evaluations.
• Day 2 in Sealine, where participants were tested in real off-road conditions to assess driving technique, consistency, and terrain adaptation across off-road disciplines.
The participating drivers were:
ABDULAZIZ AL KUWARI, MOHAMMED AL MARRI, ABDULLA AL RABBAN, AHMED AL KUWARI, MOHAMMED AL ATTEYA, MOHAMMED AL HARQAN, MOHAMMED AL MEER, AHMED AL MUHANNADI, NOUEF AL SOWAIDI, RASHID AL MOHANNADI
Throughout the Shoot-Out, QMMF evaluated and developed each driver’s cognitive performance, including reaction time, focus, situational awareness, and decision-making. Drivers were assessed without copilots, emphasizing independent navigation and full vehicle control.
Following the Shoot-Out, the best-performing drivers will be selected to join the Qatar Motorsports Academy and represent the Qatar National Team, where they will undergo structured weekly training covering physical preparation, cognitive development, and advanced driving skills.
The Qatar Motor and Motorcycle Federation remains committed to developing Qatari talent and preparing national drivers to compete at the highest international standards in off-road motorsport.
