LIVE STREAMING for the Dubai 24 Hours available on crankandpiston.com
[Not a valid template]Dubai residents may be aware of an international sporting event at the Autodrome this weekend. If you’re not, I’ll give you a clue: 40 different nationalities from 18 different countries, long nights, exhausted eyes, and all the shawarmas you can pile away in a 24-hour period.
No, not Mardi Gras.
The Dubai 24 Hours returns to action this weekend for the ninth time since its inauguration in 2006. Jeroen Bleekemolen – the event’s most successful competitor – aims to take his third event victory. Team Abu Dhabi by Black Falcon is gunning for its victory hat trick. Last year’s runners’ up Craft Racing returns for a second bite of the cherry. RAM Racing hopes to put in an impressive outing on its sophomore appearance.
To see how they get on, you’ll need the below LIVE STREAMING LINK. You’ll also want to check out Radio Le Mans’ live commentary from the event HERE. Just click LISTEN LIVE.
And to really get you in the mood ahead of the event, how about a cheeky timelapse vid showing the preparation involved for a 24-hour race? Or a highlight reel from last year’s event with some not-quite-enthusiastic-enough American commentary?
