Over the weekend the SIRBB race track in Shuwaikh claimed its first victim, a Ferrari California. Looks like traction control was turned off and the driver lost control of the vehicle. I love how the driver stayed calm after the crash, if it was me I would have dropped a few dozen F-bombs. [YouTube]

The GulfRun team are holding their third 24 Hours Karting Endurance Race this weekend. This year the race is taking place at the newly opened SIRBB Circuit in Shuwaikh and will follow international regulations from start to finish. Tonight is the practice race which will be held alongside the Shakshooka Market and tomorrow starting at 4PM will be the beginning of the 24 hour race. 18 teams are participating in total so pass by and check them out.

Shakshooka, the nomadic farmers market is taking place tonight from 6PM to 8PM at the new SIRBB Circuit in Shuwaikh. Due to more venders participating this week the market will be open for 2 hours instead of the usual 1.
