The talented engineer reached the finals after a series of tests that included an IQ test, an engineering test, extensive interviews, a decision-making challenge designed by Harvard University, in addition to designing and controlling a vehicle.
Al Samarani says: “His studies at the Lebanese University gave him an advanced level of science in the basics of engineering,” which helped him to pass the tests of the international competition. He advised his fellow engineering students to participate in this competition because they all have the possibilities to win and work with the world's leading engineers in advanced car and racing sports industries.
