Dead Sea, 16 May 2026: As part of its longstanding strategic partnership with Jordan Motorsport, Zain Jordan provided its official sponsorship for Jordan Rally 2026, the third round of the Middle East Rally Championship (MERC), which took place in the Dead Sea and Jordan Valley regions from 14 to 16 May, and organized by Jordan Motorsport.
Zain’s sponsorship of Jordan Rally comes as an extension of its continuous support for the sports and youth sectors in the Kingdom, and its belief in the importance of supporting various sports to strengthen Jordan’s presence on the regional and international sports events scene. This contributes to stimulating tourism and economic activity, while highlighting the natural and touristic attractions Jordan has to offer, particularly the Dead Sea area.
The rally witnessed the participation of an elite group of rally drivers from Jordan and across the region, competing over 12 special stages on gravel roads across the Dead Sea and Jordan Valley areas. The rally activities kicked off on Thursday with the official Shakedown stage, followed by the official opening ceremony at “Hover Up Park.” The competitions on Friday and Saturday included stages passing through Shouneh, Baptism Site, Ma’in, Panorama, Sweimeh, and Rawda, which formed the final and longest Power Stage of the rally.
