July 2, 2026
GRRL! SUMMARY:
- AMNA AL QUBAISI sits tenth at midseason after joining via Talent Pool initiative, crediting spec machinery for allowing pure driver development versus fighting equipment deficits experienced in F1 Academy and endurance racing.
- The 26-year-old Emirati scored three top-tens including ninth at Zhuhai and Fuji, exceeding her own expectations given zero prior Porsche experience while targeting top-five finishes at familiar Singapore street circuit.
- HAMDA AL QUBAISI, younger sister, previously co-drove Ligier JS P4 in European Series before AMNA committed to single-driver Carrera Cup format, expressing desire to continue in Asia or German series.
- Adaptation from single-seater philosophy remains ongoing challenge as AL QUBAISI learns to trust GT car’s lateral grip, traction control, and ABS systems versus high-downforce open-wheel machinery’s aerodynamic stability.
UPCOMING:
- Porsche Carrera Cup Asia – Bangsaen Street Circuit, Thailand – July 11-13, 2026
- Porsche Carrera Cup Asia – Marina Bay Street Circuit, Singapore – TBA 2026
