Entries for the 2024/25 Gulf Radical Cup opened last week. First to show his commitment to the series was Alim Geshev.

Last season was Alim's first full season of car racing in the Gulf Radical Cup, and even up to the last round, he was still in contention for the title. However, the competition was so close between him, Alex Buhantsov, and Usmaan Mughal that he had to settle for third overall.

With some dominant performances over the season, he will be coming into the series as one of the favourites for sure.

Alim has wasted no time during the UAE 'off-season', competing in the Ultimate Cup Series in an LMP3. Sharing the seat with James Winslow and John Corbett, the trio have already tasted the podium, winning their class in Portimão a few weeks back. Alim will also compete in two rounds of the Hagerty UK Radical Cup, racing at Paul Ricard and then Silverstone in July.

Alim added:

“I am thrilled and excited to be a part of the Gulf Radical Cup this coming season. My route into racing started last year when I entered my first full racing season and was honoured to be third in the overall standings.

Each event in the championship was challenging and kept me on the edge of my seat until the very end. The competition was fierce and exciting at the same time. The adrenaline rush I felt as I was speeding down the track was like nothing else. Apart from the Radical Cup, I also challenged myself with races in LMP prototypes, which were not for the faint-hearted either.

I am all in for the next season of the Gulf Radical Cup and will hone my skills and push myself to the limits to face the ambitious and powerful vibe of the new level - ‘If in doubt, flat out!’.”

Alim will also be looking to take the most prestigious of all Radical racing accolades - to become the Radical World Champion. With the Kinetic 7 Radical World Finals in November at YAS, all eyes will be on the local competitors, who will surely be using their local knowledge and looking for that home advantage.
