He also went together with Kari Vehniainen from Finland and the German Matti Seidel, to ride in the 8 Hours of Doha.
They finished 5th, behind second place winners from the Honda RMT #21 Racing Team riding 221 laps, only 5 laps less than the winning Yamaha Austria Racing Team.

Arie Vos rode the best lap time from the team with a 2:05.
322 at the Losail circuit.
Twowheelsblog went to visit Arie at his home in the Dutch town, Oss.
He said: “Only one month before the race I was contacted with the question if I would like to ride.
So when I arrived at the Losail circuit, it was the first time I saw the other riders, but it’s fun.
I like endurance racing.
You need to find a good setting for three riders in stead of only one.
And so the crew is very important, they must be fast in changing tyres, filling up the fuel…”And more: “I like endurance but most of all my attention will go to sprint racing because I like close fighting.

But if I can ride endurance again next year, I will sure do it!”
