NADIR BIN HENDI made his F1H2O racing debut in Portugal in 2015 switching from the larger confines of two-seater offshore cockpits to the single-seater. His debut was somewhat of a baptism of fire blowing the boat over, but he went on to round out his ‘rookie’ year with his first points finish in Sharjah.

In his 11 years in Class 1 he has established himself as one of the all-time greats, winning 30 races, the world title five times, the European Championship twice and the Middle East Championship four times. He has also won the XCat series multiple times.
