Al Dhaheri went on to score 56 more points in the championship, and scored a best finish of 4th at both Monza and Mugello on the way to 10th place in the drivers' standings. [10] Al Dhaheri also competed in the Euro 4 Championship, finishing 12th with Prema. In November, Al Dhaheri competed at the Macau Formula 4 Race at the prestigious Guia Circuit. He finished the qualifying race in 4th, and the final race in 3rd, giving him his first Formula 4 podium. Al Dhaheri also did one round of the 2023 Formula 4 South East Asia Championship, where he won his first Formula 4 race at Sepang.
On 2 January 2024, Al Dhaheri was announced to continue with Prema Racing for the 2024 Italian F4 and Euro 4 Championships. [11] [12] It was later announced that Al Dhaheri would take part in the 2024 Formula 4 UAE Championship, also with Prema.

Al Dhaheri made his debut in Formula Regional machinery with PHM Racing during the FIA Formula Regional World Cup. [15] He would finish the race but was later disqualified for technical infringements. [16]
