For the annual visit to Rockingham, the Muscat driver will also be aiming to take his tally of wins for the year into double figures having secured his eighth and ninth victories of the season last time out.It really has been a wonderful season for the Oman Air Racing Team so far, said Ahmad, Knockhill was a fantastic weekend, the two wins there were very important for our championship and to go into the final six races of the season with a lead of nearly 50 points is a great position to be in.Theres no doubt Rockingham will be tough, every weekend in Porsche Carrera Cup GB is, but well prepare as well as we can in testing on Friday and then aim to do our very best in qualifying and the races as always. The season is reaching a crucial stage now, our lead is strong but it can all change very quickly so the most important thing is to maintain our focus and keep pushing.Driving, as ever, with the backing of prestigious sponsors Oman Air, Oman Ministry of Sports Affairs, Oman Ministry of Tourism, Nawras, National Bank of Oman and Muscat Eye Laser Centre, Ahmad heads to Rockingham with his confidence justly high.If we can leave Rockingham with our points lead protected Ill be delighted, he added, We wont be taking things easy though, I intend to fight for two more podiums and if we are in a position to challenge for more wins then thats what well do. Im confident well be strong this weekend.Pre-event testing will take place this Friday, 21st September, with qualifying for rounds 15 and 16 of the season following on Saturday, 22nd September, at 13.55.
