  • The Emirati driver made history as first Arab woman in Porsche Talent Pool Asia, finishing 12th among 29 entries after switching from F1 Academy and Ligier European Series to GT racing with Team Jebsen in 2026.
  • AL QUBAISI charged from 22nd to 14th on-track in Sunday’s finale, navigating multiple incidents and safety cars before another false start penalty relegated her to 22nd, marking a frustrating but progress-filled season conclusion.
  • Her season included overall top-ten finishes at Zhuhai, Fuji and Bangsaen, where she claimed sixth in Pro class, demonstrating consistent improvement adapting to the Porsche 911 GT3 Cup car against established international competition.
