Personal life
Al Azhari is the son of Karim Al Azhari, a German-Emirati businessman and former racing driver.[1] Al Azhari is also the younger brother of fellow racing driver Keanu Al Azhari, who he raced against in his maiden season in Spanish F4.[2]
Career
Al Azhari obtained his first kart at the age of five, making his racing debut two years later and competing until 2024.[3] During his karting career, Al Azhari most notably won the 2018–19 RMC UAE series in Micro Max and the 2024 IAME Middle East Cup in X30 Senior.[4]
In 2024, Al Azhari made his single-seater debut in the F4 Spanish Championship, racing for Tecnicar Motorsport from the third round onwards.[5] Racing in the final five rounds, Al Azhari scored a best result of tenth in race one at MotorLand Aragón en route to a 24th-place points finish.[6] At the end of the year, Al Azhari joined Yas Heat Racing to contest the inaugural season of the Formula Trophy UAE.[7] In the three-round series, Al Azhari scored a best result of fifth in both Yas Marina rounds to end the year 12th in points.[8][9]
Al Azhari remained with Yas Heat Racing to race in the F4 Middle East Championship in early 2025,[10] in which he won race one at Lusail,[11] but was later disqualified after his clutch was found to be illegal.[12] After ending the winter tenth in points with a best result of fifth,[13] Al Azhari joined Rodin Motorsport for the rest of the year to compete in the F4 British Championship.[14] Al Azhari scored his maiden win in the reverse-grid race at Silverstone,[15] before taking further wins at Snetterton and Knockhill along with three more podiums to end the year sixth in points.[16][17] At the end of the year, Al Azhari partook in the relaunched F4 Saudi Arabian Championship,[18] scoring two wins in Bahrain and three podiums in Jeddah to end the season runner-up to Kit Belofsky.[19][20] Also near the end of the year, Al Azhari reunited with Yas Heat Racing to compete in Formula Trophy,[21] scoring podiums at Dubai and Yas Marina to end the year sixth in points.[22]
The following year, Al Azhari remained with Yas Heat Racing to race in the UAE4 Series.[23]
