This time Avik won the Round 5 of the NGK Pro Car Championship round three in Dubai, UAE. The race took place on the Yas Marina Circuit, an F1 track in Dubai. 

Avik is going to be the first-ever international championship winner from Bangladesh as he has mathematically won the race already with a  lead of 53 points, which he mentioned 'like Lewis Hamilton!'.

If he does the final round the lead will be even more.

He had his team, Bangladesh Motorsports, especially Rashid Ali who co-owned and managed the racing team, with him throughout the championship in UAE.
