British Pakistani racer Enaam Ahmed finished 17th in the 2023 IndyNXT by Firestone race at Road America due to tyre issues, despite starting from the rear and battling for a top-10 position.
Nevertheless, as a determined rookie, Enaam remains focused on achieving further success and breaking records in his racing career for the remainder of the season. Enaam Ahmed competed in the 6th round of the 2023 IndyNXT by Firestone this past weekend, taking on the historic Road America racing circuit.
The track is one of the most famous and challenging race tracks in America, and has hosted many of the top American racing series over the past 68 years.
Ahmed was forced to start near the rear of the field due to troubles with his car’s performance during qualifying. He was not worried by the tough task ahead of him, however, and the 23-year-old put his considerable skills to work as soon as the race started. After just two laps around the four-mile course, the Pakistani Panther had muscled his way past four drivers.
Ahmed went wheel to wheel with Matteo Nannini on the opening lap, and was even able to complete the pass around the outside of the Carousel, the fastest and most difficult corner on the track.
