Lebanese driver Roger Feghali continued his dominance here as he won the 36th Rally of Lebanon for the 11th time.

Feghali and his co-pilot Joseph Matar in a Ford Fiesta Sunday won the race that was organised under the patronage of Lebanon's President Michel Suleiman, reports Xinhua.

Nasser Al-Attiyah of Qatar and his Italian co-pilot Geovanni Bernaccini in a Ford Fiesta RRC took second place ahead of Lebanon's Abdo Feghali and his co-pilot in his Mini Cooper RRC.

The Rally of Lebanon is the fourth stage of the Middle East Championship and was competed over three days with the participation of 38 cars from Lebanon, Qatar, Kuwait and Jordan.

It is considered one of the most difficult stages of the Middle East championship and extends over 854 kilometres.
