Khairul Idham Pawi of BOON SIEW HONDA RACING TEAM carved a winning moment at the Sepang International Circuit when he bolted to the finish line first in the MSBK600 class. The season opener has been a fruitful one thus far with a good practice session the day before for Khairul fondly known as KIP. He also took the pole position on the grid when he completed the qualifying session with his fastest at 2’09:726s. Throughout the race, KIP kept on to his momentum, consistently. While the first five laps were favourable with the much-needed gap from his teammate, Azroy, he was soon challenged when Azroy pulled in closer behind him. By the seventh lap, Azroy’s diligence to take lead pushed him ahead of Khairul. It was then the beginning of a heated race between the duo. While they glided in and out of P1 and P2 at the corners, the neck-to-neck battle kept everyone at the edge of their seats at the final turn as the equally dextrous riders gambled upon the speed of the Honda CBR600RR towards the finish line. Khairul boasted victory when he finished first clocking in at 21’53:773s. Commenting on the race, “It was quite a good start for me especially in the first few laps. It gave me ample of gap from the next in line. However, after the fifth lap, I noticed Azroy getting closer to me.” “Initially, it was tough to push through so I kept consistent with my pace. The turns gave me opportunities to glide in and out but it was not until the last turn that I found the right moment to push further. I managed to overtake right after and take the winning spot.” Azroy inches away made his fastest at 21’53:852s with a gap of 0.079s.
