Hamad al Sulaiti edged Salman al Khater to post a fine win in the Group C of the Qatar Online Racing Championship, organised by the Qatar Motor and Motorcycle Federation (QMMF) to keep the local drivers at home and busy.

In the second leg, run at the Interlagos Circuit in Sao Paulo, Brazil on Tuesday, Sulaiti, who was second to Khater in the opening round, beat him in the second race. The win tied him with Khater at the top.

Khalid Saadon, fifth in the last race, grabbed the third spot and was followed by Abdulla Shaikhan and Faesal al Yafei. Ahmed Kholy and Khalid al Kuwari continued their winning march and stayed at the top of their respective pools.
