Muhammed Rayyan Usman | Road to WEC

From Saudi Arabia to the world stage, building my path to professional endurance racing.

My Story

I’m 19 years old, based in Saudi Arabia. Cars were my first love. Everyone who knows me knows how deep that passion runs. From playing racing games as a kid, to spotting and photographing cars for years.But the truth is, I didn’t realize what I was really chasing until recently: racing itself. The competition, the speed, the discipline. It’s more than just cars; it’s about pushing myself beyond limits.I’ve only touched the surface, one karting session at Ferrari World as a kid, where I dropped to last but fought my way back to the front, and countless hours behind a controller in NFS and Forza. But that taste was enough to wake something in me.

My Mission

My mission is simple but far from easy: to take a lifelong passion for cars and transform it into a career in motorsport. I’m starting from zero. No junior career, no racing background, no head start. But what I do have is the drive to outwork and outlearn anyone in my way.Motorsport is not just about speed. It’s about control, endurance, focus, and faith under pressure. For me, this journey is proof that with discipline and belief, even the wildest dreams can be made real. Every hour I spend training, every lap on the simulator, every drop of sweat in the gym is an investment in that mission.I want to inspire others who feel “too late” or “too far” from their goals to realize that there’s always a way forward if you refuse to back down. One day, insha’Allah, I will represent myself and Saudi Arabia on the endurance racing stage and everything I’m doing now is building towards that moment.

Car Culture & Beyond

Before I ever stepped into motorsport, I lived through cars in every way possible. From late-night meets to long days behind the camera. Photographing cars, creating montages, and connecting with other enthusiasts shaped my eye for detail and my love for the community.Even now, I keep one foot in car culture: capturing events and telling stories through photos and videos. Motorsport may be the destination, but cars have always been my foundation. This side of my journey shows where it all began and keeps me connected to the people and passion that started it all.
