A driving experience through desert<\/strong> and rocky canyons,<\/strong> but also through the futuristic tentacles of Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharja and Fujairah.<\/strong> This and much more was the 1000 Miglia Experience UAE<\/a><\/strong>, an event organised by Octanium Experiences<\/em> under licence from 1000 Miglia, which proposed for the third year running a winning combination of the 1000 Miglia Style<\/em> and a tailor-made<\/em> format enhancing the special features of the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The victory went to Roland Hotz<\/strong> and Giordano Mozzi<\/strong> in the modern 2017 Porsche 911 GT STREET R<\/strong>: this was the third triumph in a row in the Emirates for the Italian in the role of navigator. Second on the Abu Dhabi<\/strong> podium was the Saudi Arabian crew<\/strong> of Adnan Nouh<\/strong> and Zyad Al Arfaj<\/strong>, competing in a 1975 911 Carrera MFI<\/strong>. Third were Jeffrey Gault<\/strong> and Raffaele Conti<\/strong> in their 1955 Jaguar XK 140.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Monday, 2 December<\/strong>, National Day for the 53rd anniversary of the union of the Arab Emirates, the 90 participating crews<\/strong> set off from the Emirates Golf Club in Dubai<\/a> <\/strong>and finished the leg at the artificial archipelago of Marjan Island<\/a><\/strong> in Ras Al Khaimah<\/strong>, home to world-class hotels and resorts, ultra-modern leisure facilities and beautiful natural attractions, including almost 8 kilometres of pristine sandy beaches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The second leg was the ascent to the almost 2000-metre Jabel Jais Mounain<\/a><\/strong>, with an Average Trial and lunch at altitude at the highest point reachable in the seven Emirates. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wednesday 4 December was the turn of the Khawr Fakkan<\/strong> area, followed by a pleasant descent along the coast of the Emirate of Fujairah<\/strong>. Reaching the hinterland again, the participants enjoyed a convivial experience in a typical Bedouin setting<\/strong> having lunch in the desert, before returning to Fujairah to end the leg. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the fourth and final day of the race, after a lap around the Dubai Autodrome<\/a><\/strong>, the crews crossed the final finish line at the foot of the Ethiad Towers in Abu Dhabi<\/strong>. This was followed by the prize-giving ceremony overlooking the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n
