The Victory Team duo of Mansoor Al Mansoori and Khalfan Suhail Al Muhairi will mount their first ever challenge on the UIM F2 World Championship at the season-opening Grand Prix of Lithuania on the Kaunas Reservoir, this weekend.

Al Mansoori, who won the F4-S title last season, has been promoted to UIM F2.

Huraiz Bin Huraiz, Chairman of the Board of Directors at Victory Team said:

The objective is to always be number one on the podium.
But this is powerboat racing and anything can happen to even the best.
We are confident of doing well and getting a few points in this class of powerboat racing.

The basic idea is to see how our drivers do in this class.
This season we have deliberately moved along nearly all existing classes of powerboat racing and we are confident that our youth can deliver the goods for the blue boats.
