Doha, Qatar: Team QMMF (Qatar Motor & Motorcycle Federation) by HRT achieved a significant victory in the fiercely competitive Porsche 911 GT3 (992 AM) class during the Hankook 24H Dubai, part of the 24H Series Middle East Trophy Challenge, at the Dubai Autodrome, yesterday.

The significant accomplishment marks a milestone in Qatar’s endurance racing history.
