AN UNEXPECTED WIN FOR FAREEZ

AN UNEXPECTED WIN FOR FAREEZ

M. Fareez Afeez A. Rahman of SBF BIKERS grabbed the win in Race 2 for the YAMAHA Y16ZR Race MasterClass and closed the curtains for Round 2 of Malaysia Superbike Championship.

Fareez, who began the race at the third spot on the grid, was not spotted anywhere near the top ten riders in the beginning of the race. Up until the third lap, Fareez seemed to have had a hard time working his way into the top ten but in the fourth lap, he worked on his technical skills and made an entry into P9.

With the troop fighting aggressively, looking for slip-stream opportunities, it was a feat that posed unpredictable challenges for all riders in the class. Nevertheless, Fareez managed to grasp hold of his pace and barged ahead of the riders at the last lap.

Fareez clocked in at 17’49:135s.

Commenting on the race, Fareez said, “In the beginning of the race, it was not that I wanted to remain at the back but I had issues with my machine. The lever of the gear went missing and at the first turn, I couldn’t do much. So, I followed the troop at the back and on the last lap, I tried to move forward. Thankfully, I made it through.”

Taking the second spot on the podium was Ahmad Syamil Akmal Jamaludin of EL CHONG, logging in at 17’49:135s.

At third place, Muhd Aliff Danial Muhd Asri of SINGDECA RACING made it at 17’49:137s.
