NEW MACHINE FOR CY

Round 2 of the Malaysia Superbike Championship (MSBK) revved off once again at the Sepang International Circuit with the practice sessions. Khoo Chee Yen of Suzuki Mobilub Racing Team clocked in fastest today in the practice sessions, combined.

In the practice session 1 that went on in the afternoon, Chen Hsuan Ming of Dream Team scored the fastest lap time at 2’16:799s. Chee Yen of Mobilub Suzuki Racing Team marked the second fastest lap time at 2’17:824s followed by Kuo Shih Wei with his best at 2’18:955s. During practice session 2, Chee Yen marked fastest with his best lap time at 2’16:012s followed by Radzi Omar of FGRT (Fauzi Gan Racing Team) with his best at 2’16:152s. Chen Hsuan Ming made it third fastest with his best lap time at 2’16:463s.

With the combined results, Chee Yen emerged fastest for the day with his best lap time at 2’16:012s. The rider is no stranger to the MSBK scene and has been quite competitive with his strikes. In Round 1, Chee Yen took home the Weekend Champion trophy after obtaining a total of 41 points with the fastest in Race 1 and a podium finish in Race 2.

Commenting on the session, Chee Yen said, “I have my new machine for this round therefore it is more of finding the right setup in both FP1 and FP2. So far, the condition of the machine is quite good. Definitely I am very happy with the new machine but it still requires time to get the best out of it. My goal is to make it to the top like in Round 1. But we have two very strong Taiwanese riders this time around. Radzi Omar is also here for the race. It will be a competitive feat but I will try my best. For now, I will focus on qualifying tomorrow.”
