It won’t be long before we witness Qatar’s finest drifters compete on the 10th of November, for a chance to be crowned the King of Drift. Here’s five reasons why you should be excited for this year’s highly anticipated Red Bull Car Park Drift:

1. Abdo Feghali

He’s back and he’s ready for a night-full of skid marks. The legend of drifting, Abdo Feghali, will be overseeing Red Bull Car Park Drift – Qatar Qualifier as chief supervisor. Oh, and let’s not forget about the dramatic smoke storm he’ll be cooking up.

2. Same Car Park, New Tricks

This year’s track will be putting drifters to the ultimate test. The Dallah parking will turn into a drifter’s playground, with new obstacles and objectives, making it one of the most challenging courses yet.

4. Pedal to the Points

Drifters will have to slide in style to rack up the points. The judging panel will be looking at everything the drifters bring to their wheels, including skill, aesthetics and, finesse.
