Pilot a time Qatari is becoming everything a world benchmark. After his victory in the Dakar this year, hard-fought battle with a pilot of the stature of Carlos Sainz including, the Attiyah Nasser has become one of rights eyes of Kris Nissen. With the project of Volkswagen in raids almost in its final stage the Germans want to Qatar for your project in the WRC.
The own pilot has been assured since the contract in its power and you just need to sign to seal their agreement with Volkswagen for the next seasons. But soon it will take part along with Carlos Sainz and other drivers of the brand in the 24 hours Nurburgring at the controls of the Volkswagen Scirocco. The next goal is already Finland, where Nasser will participate at the controls of Fabia S2000 on the computer before opening the new prototype of the WRC at the end of the year.
I have the contract and need me just my pen to sign it. When you return the 24 hours of Nurburgring he sign it. It is really good for me because I have very good relationship with Volkswagen Motorsport and am very happy to be part of the team.
