Global online trading provider joins the region’s premier one-make racing series for the 2025/2026 season, spanning six rounds across four Gulf nations
STARTRADER, a leading global online trading provider, has been announced as an official partner of the Porsche Carrera Cup Middle East, the region’s most prestigious single-marque motorsport series. The multi-round partnership will see STARTRADER’s brand featured across the 2025/2026 season, which spans six rounds in Bahrain, Qatar, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Saudi Arabia.
The Season Continues
After exciting opening rounds in Bahrain, Qatar, and Dubai, the new Porsche Carrer Cup Middle East season now moves forward across the Gulf, continuing its journey through a series of world-class circuits:
- Abu Dhabi (31 January – 1 February 2026)
- Bahrain (10 – 12 April 2026)
- Saudi Arabia (17 – 19 April 2026)
A Natural Alignment
Based at Bahrain International Circuit, the Porsche Carrera Cup Middle East has established itself as a proving ground for regional and international talent. The series welcomes drivers in the Pro, ProAm, and Masters categories, as well as professional racing teams, providing a platform where skill and strategy determine results on identical Porsche 911 GT3 Cup machinery. For STARTRADER, this philosophy mirrors its own approach to the markets: providing traders with equal access to powerful tools and platforms, allowing preparation and discipline to define success.
Shared Standards, Shared Values
The partnership reflects a deep alignment in principles that drive excellence in both motorsport and trading. In one-make racing, victory is measured in fractions of a second. In trading, precision execution separates opportunity from missed potential. Both disciplines demand composure under pressure, sound risk management, and the ability to adapt and perform when it matters most. Championships are not won in a single lap, just as lasting success in the markets is built trade after trade, season after season.
