In the Berjaya Sompo YAMAHA R15M Race Elites category of the 2025 AEON CREDIT MAM MALAYSIA SUPERBIKE CHAMPIONSHIP, one rider proved that perseverance and steady progress can lead to glory. Asyraff Zaquan Zainal Raif emerged as the Overall Champion, a testament to patience, focus, and unwavering dedication. The season didn’t start perfectly for Asyraff. Early rounds saw him settling into the rhythm, learning the circuits, and fine-tuning his approach. But with each race, improvement came incrementally, lap by lap, until it exploded into a breakthrough. In Round 4 Race 1, Asyraff claimed his first victory of the season, a win that not only earned crucial points but also catapulted him to the top of the standings and secured the overall championship. What makes his story remarkable is that he didn’t rely solely on raw talent. He demonstrated patience, resilience, and a commitment to continuous growth. Asyraff’s journey shows that early setbacks don’t define the outcome, and that steady effort, persistence, and belief in oneself can turn any season around. A rider who may have seemed average at first ended the year as a champion. His achievement is a reminder to all that it is never too late to reach your goals, and that progress, no matter how gradual, can lead to greatness. With talent matched by determination, Asyraff Zaquan Zainal Raif is not just a 2025 champion, but a rider whose journey and dedication make him one to watch in the years ahead.
In the 2025 AEON CREDIT MAM MALAYSIA SUPERBIKE CHAMPIONSHIP, YAMAHA Y16ZR Race MasterClass category, one rider proved that determination, discipline, and sheer willpower can overcome any challenge. Ahmad Jebat Zulkarnain emerged as the Overall Champion, a testament to focus both on and off the track. The category is notorious for its intense pack racing, with riders battling in tight groups for every corner and every position. To come out on top requires not only strategy and skill but peak physical performance. Competing alongside younger riders with smaller physiques, Jebat knew he had to do more than just ride fast. He doubled his training intensity, fine-tuned his fitness, and maintained a strict diet, keeping his body light and agile for the rigours of the race. Every push, every lap, every calorie counted and the results spoke for themselves. Jebat’s combination of preparation, intelligence, and sheer grit allowed him to not only keep pace with the pack but to consistently find opportunities to take the lead. His discipline transformed obstacles into advantages, turning physical and mental limits into a championship-winning formula. At a young age, Ahmad Jebat Zulkarnain has already demonstrated the mindset of a champion. If he continues his dedication and hard work, there is no doubt he will achieve even greater success in Malaysian motorsport and beyond.
The 2025 AEON CREDIT MAM MALAYSIA SUPERBIKE CHAMPIONSHIP found one of its young heroes in MSBK250 B. At 13 years old, Qayyim Razin Razali of HORIZON RACING TEAM didn’t just enter the season, he disrupted it. From Round 1 to Round 4, Race 1 and Race 2, he was unstoppable, delivering a clean, untouchable sweep. No shared victories, no trading places, no “almost beat him” moments. Just Qayyim, first place, every single time. But the fascinating part wasn’t the wins. It was how he won. While others raced the field, Qayyim raced the clock. He rarely looked behind, because his competition wasn’t there. It was in his lap delta, in the milliseconds he wanted back, in the version of himself he was determined to outgrow. Most riders push to catch up. He pushes to level up. Even with giant gaps in hand, he never cruised. He hunted improvements like someone was chasing him, constantly refining, constantly evolving, constantly faster. By the time others tried to close in, he was already gone, improving again. Fans call him unbeatable. Teammates call him focused. But inside his helmet, he simply sees someone he still wants to surpass, himself. Thirteen years old, yet riding with the discipline of a veteran and the ambition of someone with no finish line in sight. If this is just the opening chapter, the pages ahead could hold something extraordinary. Qayyim Razin Razali is not just the 2025 MSBK250 B Champion. He is proof that age is a number, but greatness is a mindset.
In racing, talent gets you on the grid, but intelligence keeps you ahead. For Ahmad Afif Amran of SUPERFAST JRT X RAPIDO, the 2025 AEON CREDIT MAM MALAYSIA SUPERBIKE CHAMPIONSHIP title in MSBK250 A was won not only on the throttle, but in the data, the details, and the decisions. Afif doesn’t just ride the bike. He understands it. While many rely purely on instinct, Afif blends speed with technical precision. After every session, he’s trackside with his team, laptop open, reading telemetry like a language, throttle traces, lean angles, braking points, turning data into setup advantages. This rare mix of instinct and analytics became his edge in 2025. On track, he was relentless yet calculated. His starts, explosive. His overtakes, sharp and intentional. When rivals pushed, Afif responded not with chaos, but strategy. Every lap was a lesson. Every corner, an equation solved. He grew faster by understanding more, refining suspension feel, maximizing corner exits, unlocking performance others couldn’t. When pressure peaked, Afif thrived. When the moment demanded execution, he delivered. That is how he became champion. Not just with fast hands, but with a faster mind. Ahmad Afif Amran, the rider who thinks faster than he rides. The 2025 champion who proved intelligence wins races.
Khairul Idham Pawi of HONDA RACING MYS once again proved why Malaysia calls him “The King of Rain.” When storms turn the circuit into a battle of balance and bravery, he thrives. While others tiptoe through uncertainty, Khairul finds traction where few can, carving racing lines invisible to the untrained eye. In the wettest moments of the 2025 AEON CREDIT MAM MALAYSIA SUPERBIKE CHAMPIONSHIP, he didn’t just survive. He dominated. Reducing Khairul to a rain specialist would be unfair. His smooth control, perfect braking, and calm focus turn consistency into his greatest weapon. While others flare, he endures. Challenges came fast, but Khairul’s resilience never wavered. Every test, every rival, every doubt was met with results on the track. His success in the 2025 AEON CREDIT MAM MALAYSIA SUPERBIKE CHAMPIONSHIP is also a culmination of years on the world stage. From Moto3 to Moto2, and across regional circuits, Khairul gained not just speed, but perspective, intelligence, and a veteran understanding of race psychology. This showed in every start, every overtake, and every finish line crossed in MSBK600. By season’s end, Khairul Idham Pawi was the rightful MSBK600 Champion. Not by accident. Not by luck. But by craft, courage, and quiet brilliance. Rain or shine, Khairul is unstoppable. The 2025 crown wasn’t handed to him. He conquered it.
In racing, winning every race is not the only path to glory. For Teuku Irfan Affandy of TRIPLE A GARAGE, crowned MSBK1000 B Overall Champion in the 2025 AEON CREDIT MAM MALAYSIA SUPERBIKE CHAMPIONSHIP, success came from consistency, determination, and pure love for the sport. Teuku did not sweep every podium, but he was always finishing strong and keeping his championship hopes alive. With one triumph, a handful of podiums, and consistent top five finishes, he steadily accumulated the points needed for the championship. Every finish, every lap, every point counted, a testament to his discipline and unwavering focus. Teuku’s triumph highlights a truth often overlooked in racing. It is not always about dominating every race. It is about passion, perseverance, and the determination to cross the finish line, race after race. His approach of racing smart, finishing strong, and staying consistent made the difference, proving that a champion is not just fast, but resilient, committed, and in love with the sport. Teuku Irfan Affandy showed that consistency and heart can be just as powerful as sheer speed, earning him the well-deserved title of MSBK1000 B Overall Champion.
Not all champions are loud. Some win by being exact. Calculated. Unshakably consistent. In the 2025 AEON CREDIT MAM MALAYSIA SUPERBIKE CHAMPIONSHIP, Azroy Hakeem Anuar let his riding do the talking. Racing for HONDA RACING MALAYSIA, he built his campaign with clean, controlled, intelligent, and relentlessly fast riding. No theatrics. No unnecessary risks. Just clinical execution. Corner after corner, his technical precision shone. Even amid fierce competition, Azroy stayed calm, adapting and striking with consistent lap times that kept him ahead. Under championship pressure, he remained composed, proving that titles are won through consistency, not chaos. Fresh from the global stage at MotoGP Malaysia on 26 October 2025, Azroy returned to domestic competition sharper, faster, and more confident. At PETRONAS Sepang International Circuit for Round 4, he dominated both Race 1 and Race 2, showcasing the upgraded race craft earned from international experience. And when the season drew its final breath, there was only one rightful conclusion. Azroy Hakeem Anuar is the 2025 MSBK1000 A Overall Champion. Not by luck. Not by chance. But by mastery. A champion who wins by being better, every lap, every round, every moment.

Despite Izam’s win, Khairul Idham Pawi of HONDA RACING MYS secured the MSBK600 Overall Champion title for the 2025 season. From the outset, Izam had a strong start, but Farres Putra Md Fadhil of HONG LEONG YAMAHA MALAYSIA capitalized on an open line to take the early lead, with Khairul slotting into second. Izam quickly settled into third, closely followed by Cao Viet Nam and Md Irfan Haykhal Amidi of HONDA RACING MYS. The early laps saw relentless action at the front. Izam and Khairul swapped positions repeatedly, with both riders setting fastest laps and keeping the crowd on edge. By Lap 4, light rain added an extra layer of challenge, but the duo maintained a gap over Farres, who held third position. Lap 5 brought more drama as Izam set the fastest lap of 2’11.705s to take the lead, only for Khairul to reclaim it at Turn 6. The battle continued through multiple laps with both riders overtaking each other at nearly every turn, while Cao Viet Nam and Farres fought fiercely for third. Lap 9 saw Viet Nam crash but rejoin the race, leaving Farres unchallenged in third. The final lap saw both Izam and Khairul pushing every corner, Khairul attempted a last-moment overtake at the final turn. Izam skilfully blocked him, using his momentum on the straight to cross the finish line first in 22’15.716s, just 0.063s ahead of Khairul, who finished second at 22’15.779s. Farres completed the podium in third at 22’24.475s. Izam said, “Today’s race was insane. I knew I had a very good start, and this weekend, Khairul was much faster compared to the previous round. He tried to maintain his pace and was very aggressive, especially with Race 2 in mind. I stayed with him in the early stages, and it became an intense battle, especially through many of the corners. On the last lap, I knew Khairul was strong on the brakes, so I had to block him into Turn 14 to prevent the overtake, and it worked. Into Turn 15, I held the inside line, and at the corner exit, I knew that was my moment. This win is a blessing from the prayers and support of everyone around me.” Overall, as announced yesterday, Khairul is crowned MSBK600 Overall Champion, with 147 points, ahead of Farres with 114 points and Cao Viet Nam with 109 points.
