Muscat – International Omani racing driver Al Faisal bin Khalid Al Zubair officially unveiled his new season programme alongside his new Ferrari 296 GT3 during a special evening hosted by Ferrari Oman, represented by Al Fardan Motors, in Muscat.

Partners, media representatives, guests, and motorsport enthusiasts attended the event.

The evening featured the unveiling of Al Faisal’s international GT3 racing programme for the 2026 season, alongside the presentation of Al Manar Racing’s new strategic direction, commercial partners and digital platform developed in collaboration with Omani technology company Rihal — marking another important strategic step for the team as it continues strengthening its international presence during one of the strongest periods in its sporting history.

The launch comes at a time when GT3 racing continues to witness rapid global growth, becoming one of the most competitive categories in motorsport while attracting leading automotive manufacturers, professional drivers and international brands across Europe and the Middle East.

Al Faisal will begin his season this Saturday and Sunday at Misano Circuit in Italy in a sprint racing event alongside Italian driver David Fumanelli, with technical support from Dragon Racing. Al Faisal will compete in the PRO category.
