The first edition of the Middle East championship took place in 2017, with the same weekend format on the same tracks, followed by further successful seasons in 2018 and 2019. Overall, 69 drivers have taken part in the Super Trofeo Middle East to date, with drivers such as Frederik Schandorff, who won the 2019 Pro class title, also being crowned Lamborghini Super Trofeo World Finals winner later in the same year, racing in the International GT Open and included in the Lamborghini GT3 Junior Drivers programme.
The opening round will be disputed on the penultimate weekend in January at the Yas Marina circuit in Abu Dhabi, the host venue of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. A week later, the championship heads off to the nearby Dubai Autodrome to conclude the campaign.
