Hamza made his debut on Ugandan soil this year in the Pearl of Africa Uganda rally 2022 where he registered a DNF but enjoyed the Ugandan crowds; for this reason, he has chosen to return and thrill rally fans.

The youngster rally driver sprinter was once described by Kenyan rally navigator Adnan Din as one of the greatest in the sport in coming years. Din pinpointed Hamza’s quickness on the wheel as the youngster’s greatest asset that will take him to higher levels of his motorsport career in the future.

“I must admit that we have gelled really well. I have always said that Hamza is one of the quickest young drivers in Africa at the present, so I have very high expectations of him this weekend,” Din said ahead of the Africa Rally Championship in Rwanda in September this year.

The FMU Sprint will be the last event of the 2022 NRC and will score on the NRC under the CRC category and 2WD.

With Hamza Anwar, Mark Lubega and Mike Mukula jr participating in the Sprint expect spirited fights between the three sons of Motorsports legends of Kenya versus Uganda.
