Quote of IDEMITSU Honda Racing India rider Kavin Quintal “It was a tough battle from the very start. Sepang’s layout is demanding and starting from 19th meant I had to stay focused to make any progress. I gave my everything today, but there’s still more work that needs to be done to give a better performance. Tomorrow is a new opportunity, and I am ready to push even harder.”

 

Quote of IDEMITSU Honda Racing India rider Mohsin Paramban “The race was intense, and the competition is fierce in the AP250 class. Starting from 22nd, I knew I had to keep pushing, but Sepang is challenging. If you lose focus for even a second, then you may crash as the circuit has got sharp corners. While the result isn’t what I hoped for, I’m taking the positives from today and looking forward to putting in a stronger performance tomorrow.”
