🇦🇪 Rashid Al Dhaheri

Rashid Al Dhaheri is a professional single-seater racing driver competing in the Formula Regional European Championship for R-ace GP, part of the Mercedes Junior Team. He drives open-wheel cars in a field mixing amateurs, semi-professionals and graded professionals. His earlier career ran through Italian F4 with Prema Racing, one of the sport's most established teams.[1]

Al Dhaheri spent two seasons in Italian F4 from 2023 to 2024, taking a single podium across 38 starts and finishing tenth in the 2024 championship. He has since moved to Formula Regional European, where he has shown marked improvement; across two seasons beginning in 2025, he has taken a win and five podiums from 21 starts, including three victories in his most recent campaign. His rating of 4,629 places him among professional-level drivers.[2]

His record against regular opponents shows a mixed picture. He typically finishes behind Akshay Bohra, a professional who has raced across Italian F4, Formula Regional European and Super Formula Lights, but runs closely matched with Jack Beeton, another professional with experience across multiple championships including Indy NXT. He has beaten Arvid Lindblad, an elite professional graded FIA Platinum who has progressed to Formula 2 and Formula 3, twice across their head-to-head meetings, and has a stronger record against Hiyu Yamakoshi, an established professional who has also competed in Formula 3.
