With the pressure at its peak, the final five returned to the track for one last battle. More speed. More smoke. More aggressive lines. More donuts. Every second counted as the drivers fought for the one spot everyone came for.
And while the finalists were fighting for the crown, the crowd got its own dose of drifting madness.
During the scoring breaks, Lebanese drift and rally champion Abdo Feghali took over the track, shredding tires and sending clouds of smoke across the HoverUp circuit in his modified Nissan Z. But he didn’t stop there: some lucky members of the crowd got to jump into the passenger seat and experience the thrill of a full-on drift ride alongside the legend himself!

History, Made on the Tracks
This edition of the competition now stands out from its predecessors thanks to Mira Al Tarazi, who became the first female drifter to compete in the Red Bull Car Park Drift Jordan series and finished in the Top 5, marking a major milestone in the championship.
And just when the engines went quiet, the night was far from over.
