For the third and fourth round, the young driver went to Dubai Autodrome ring and he was looking forward to continue with the best start initiated by him this season and he tried to stay very close from the rank of the Austrian champion \u201cClemens Schmid\u201d.<br \/>\nBefore the two rounds in Dubai, he said: \u201cI can\u2019t imagine that this season can begin better than now. I was very happy before with my performance but I want to increase my performance to get better results. Schmid was the fastest driver so far in the two rounds of Bahrain but I have to make sure that I\u2019ll continue with this performance in Dubai and I have to make the best preparations for my car to keep up with Schmid\u201d. Walter Leckner, director of \u201cPorsche GT3 Middle East\u201d championship said: \u201cI was always believed that Zeed Ashkanani can be in the top three and he started this season perfectly\u201d. He added: \u201cI think he needs to show consistency in the next round and prove that these results were not just a fluke\u201d.<br \/>\nGlobal elite of 20 drivers from 11 different countries participated in the championship and some of these countries are UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon and Germany. The competition was very exciting to reduce the difference with Clemens Schmid who won the two opening rounds of the fifth season on the international Bahrain ring.<br \/>\nIt is true that Dubai Autodrome ring is one of the newest and most difficult rings and it has a mix of narrow paths and high-speed curves with a length of 4.3287 km. Leckner commented on this and he said: \u201cThe championship opening round was evidence that this race is the best tournaments in the region\u201d. Before the race, Leckner said: &#8220;We have seen the enthusiasm and excitement in both rounds in Bahrain and Clemens Schmid showed his impressive speed but I\u2019m looking forward to the performance of the new drivers especially \u201cAl Maktoum\u201d who will be at his country in the next race and he has shown promising capabilities already and I see that he needs to continue this stunning performance that we have seen in Bahrain\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about Car Rating, please visit<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/uae.sellanycar.com\/Car-Rating.html\">http:\/\/uae.sellanycar.com\/Car-Rating.html<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Kuwaiti driver \u201cZeed Ashkanani\u201d added to his growing career another victory in Porsche GT3 Middle East championship at the international Bahrain ring where he achieved two positions in the two opening rounds.
