The Victory 7 team boat, led by the duo Salem Al-Adidi and Issa Al-Ali, begins a difficult and arduous (triple) mission in the Mediterranean waters today, through the Basilicata – Italy Grand Prix for powerboats (XCAT) competitions, the third round of the 2024 World Championship, which witnesses the participation of 10 boats with 20 competitors on board representing Kuwait, Italy, Australia, Britain, Belgium and Sweden, in addition to the ambassadors of the UAE sports in the Victory 7 boats, Faz Marine 3 and Fujairah 96.
Victory 7, led by Salem Al-Adidi and Issa Al-Ali, is competing for the top spot in the overall standings of the championship, as the team currently occupies third place with 77 points, behind the leader, Sweden (Suwaikat 2) with 96 points, and the second-placed Fujairah 96 (78 points).
Today, the team begins the first of the three tasks, with the completion of the stages of the second round, which was held two months ago in the city of Palermo, but was not completed due to technical circumstances, which forced the organizing committee to postpone the second main race to be held today before the third round in Basilicata, and it is preceded, as usual, by attempts to record the best time to determine the starting points in the race.
Victory duo Salem and Issa will not find time to rest as the (second) mission begins, as the Basilicata – Italy Grand Prix for XCAT powerboats will start directly tomorrow (Thursday) through the morning period, which will witness the qualifying rounds for the best time race to determine the starting positions in the first main race, which will start directly in the afternoon.
The participating teams will take a break on Friday to catch their breath and prepare for the decisive stage in the third round (the third mission), which begins on Saturday through two races, the first being the best time qualifiers in the morning period, and the second being the speed race (kilo run), while next Sunday will be a date with excitement with the second main race in the third round.
