Fresh off competing in the intense environment of the GR Cup, young charger Nasr is now setting his sights across the water to take on New Zealand's premier equivalent series. The Sydney native will make his debut during the second leg of the NextGen NZ Championship, bringing valuable momentum from his recent domestic campaign.

Having raced in the TGRA 86 Scholarship Series before stepping up to the GR Cup, Nasr has continuously proven his racecraft. His strong form was heavily showcased at Mount Panorama, where he captured a stunning race victory followed by consistent podium finishes under high-pressure scenarios.

Stepping into an unfamiliar territory with new circuits will test his adaptability, but the young gun is embracing the challenge head-on as he joins forces with Action Motorsport for the five-round championship battle.

"The New Zealand series is full of highly talented drivers and coming here will test my skills and help me improve as a driver," said Nasr, highlighting his determination to learn and grow within a highly competitive paddock environment.

"It's a great opportunity to challenge myself, gain valuable racing experience and continue developing as a driver. The series offers competitive racing and I'm excited to test myself against a strong field of drivers while learning new circuits and pushing my limits," he added, showing a mature mindset ahead of lights out.

With zero prior experience on New Zealand circuits, rigorous preparation has become the primary focus behind closed doors, utilizing data and visual references to master the upcoming tracks.

"With the GR Cup wrapping up, I've been watching plenty of onboard footage and making sure I'm ticking all the boxes with my preparation. I just want to make sure I'm as ready as possible when I head over to New Zealand so that I can put my best foot forward," he explained.
