DOHA: Nene and Fahid Al Shammari - players of Qatar Stars League (QSL) giants Al Gharafa -made a visit to Williams Advanced Engineering in Qatar to experience cutting edge simulator technology and to lend their support to the “One Second” Road Safety Campaign. Williams Technology Centre in Qatar opened its doors to the stars of Al Gharrafa football club on Monday for a look behind the scenes at the only Formula One research and development facility outside Europe. Nene and Fahid, fresh from their 5-4 victory over Al Ahli at the weekend, took time out of their training schedule to lend their support to the work Williams is delivering as part of the “One Second” road safety campaign. Williams Advanced Engineering has engineered and built a state of the art simulator here in Qatar. Taking over 12 months and 10,000 man hours to complete, the simulator will provide students and young people throughout Qatar the opportunity to experience a fully immersive driving experience, based on the roads of Doha, to better understand the importance of correct driving habits and road safety. Fahid said: “I was amazed just how realistic the Williams simulator is. It feels just like you’re driving along the streets in Doha. The road conditions, traffic congestion and other virtual motorists combine to make it an amazing experience.” He added: “I can now see just what a valuable programme this is. The “One Second” campaign is all about making young people more aware of how dangerous our roads can be. In the simulator the instructor can throw lots of distractions as you, which reminded me how important it is to keep my concentration. It can only take a second to get into a bad situation.”
