After a extremely disappointing start to last week’s race in Abu Dhabi, which destroyed his Gran Prix, we are happy to report today that Shaun Torrente has a boat to race this Thursday and Friday in the Grand Prix of UAE, Sharjah.

Shaun will be piloting a Qatar Team DAC. “It is a great boat and it is ready to go” Torrente commented, “We should be able to do really well with the equipment we now have. I need to thank the entire Qatar team and in particular Team Manager Khalid Alkulwari for giving me this opportunity.” The DAC is the same boat that Price drove to a sixth place finish last year in Sharjah. Ted Gryguc has gone through our #1 engine completely after getting it wet a few days ago, and it’s also ready to go.

Be sure to watch all the action with qualifying on Thursday and the race on Friday!
