You've gone too far now Covid-19...

What happens if you cross Lawrence of Arabia with Star Wars? Welcome to camel robot racing. Unfortunately, the whole camel racing season had to be suspended because of coronavirus. BOO.

But now it’s back 🙌

The robots are made from a drill motor, which spins a plastic whip to get the camels moving. A jersey and hat are added cos... it’s funny.

Head to Al Wathba Racetrack to cheer on your fave R2-D2, but put away those dirham. Betting on camels is illegal in the UAE.
