Qatar International Rally




The Qatar International Rally (known previously as Qatar Rally) is an international rally racing event held near the Qatari capital Doha. The rally, a gravel and sand event, dates back into the 1970s and has long been one of the cornerstone events of the Middle East Rally Championship and is one of two events (along with Dubai International Rally) to have been held in every year of the MERC.


The rally has had a group of multiple winners with local Nasser Al-Attiyah taking twelve victories in a thirteen-year period. Emirati driver Mohammed bin Sulayem has claimed nine victories and Qatari Saeed Al-Hajri has had five wins.
