Uzbek racing driver Ismail Akhmedkhodjaev won an international race at the legendary Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium

Uzbekistan pilot Ismail Akhmedkhodjaev had a successful round of the Ultimate GT Sprint Cup in Belgium: the team with his participation took two pole positions and two podiums at the legendary Spa-Francorchamps circuit.

September 20, 2026, Spa-Francorchamps, Belgium. Uzbek racing driver Ismail Akhmedkhodjaev stood on the podium of the fourth round of the Ultimate Cup Series at the legendary Spa-Francorchamps circuit. Together with Roman Rusinov, he competed in the Ultimate GT Sprint Cup category in a Rossa LM GT car, created as part of an engineering program founded by Rusinov.

Following their first European victory in July at the Mugello circuit, the crew of Rusinov and Akhmedkhodjaev once again joined the leaders of the Ultimate GT Sprint Cup.

Qualifying took place on a dry track and brought Rossa Racing two pole positions. By race day, the weather had changed: rain repeatedly altered the track conditions and demanded constant adaptation from the drivers. Despite this, Akhmedkhodjaev maintained a high pace and brought his team a second victory.

The result of the round for Rossa Racing was two poles and two podiums at Spa-Francorchamps, one of the most famous and challenging circuits in world motorsport.

"Spa is a very technical track where every lap requires complete concentration, especially when the weather is constantly changing. Therefore, it is particularly gratifying to top the podium right here, at one of the most famous circuits in world motorsport, and to represent Uzbekistan at such a level. Thanks to the whole team for their work and to Roman for this weekend," said Ismail Akhmedkhodjaev.
