Just switched on to Eurosport to see UAE cycling. They were showing camel racing for a few minutes. No whip problem as the "jockeys" are remote controlled robots operated by trainers following in 4 x 4s. They didn't say how long the races are. The track is about 5km. Has anyone on the forum been to a race meeting there ?
