00:00 The results of the PITS Bikes Oneway GRT Tech 2 Racing Team
00:05 proved their excellence not only in the Petronas MAM Malaysian Cup Twix 2024
00:10 but also in the quality of the 3rd Asian Motorcycle Championship
00:14 at the Little Moto Eji Japan.
00:17 For this week's race, we have a struggle.
00:21 Me and Afir, it's not easy.
00:25 Because we keep finding the best setup.
00:30 This is still not the best for me.
00:33 So we still must find the best way before this round.
00:41 So hopefully round 4 will be better.
00:45 I would like to thank the team, crew and mechanics
00:49 and supporters, family and sponsors.
00:52 Because we are a team, we like to work together.
01:01 We always think about improving and racing.
01:05 Meanwhile, Azrul...
01:08 Hakim Anwar managed to win the 3rd podium position in the 2nd race
01:12 after being only 5th in the 1st race, SS600 category on Saturday.
01:19 First, I want to say thank you to my team.
01:22 After all the struggle from the start of Friday.
01:26 Yesterday I had some problems with the bike.
01:29 Because I had some underweight on the bike.
01:33 We put some weight on the race, so it's not possible to be fast yesterday.
01:38 Now we found some solution to be better than yesterday.
01:42 On the race 2, I tried to follow Kengo.
01:47 But it's not possible because he was very fast in the earlier race.
01:52 But then after 3rd or 4th lap, I tried to start to get some pace.
02:00 But Helmi attacked me, so we fought very hard for the 2nd place.
02:05 And then Kengo was very far, so I tried to break away from 3rd place.
02:11 But it was not possible to.
02:13 But I'm happy for the 3rd place after all the struggle.
02:17 We fought back in the next race.
02:19 While Hafiz Sharif admitted that he had some problems with the bike.
02:23 He failed to finish the race as a champion.
02:26 But he still managed to fix his mistakes in the 1st race on Saturday
02:30 after finishing the race as a podium holder.
02:33 Alright, thank God, we finished round 3.
02:39 In both races, we stepped on the podium.
02:41 It's not easy for us because our bike doesn't have any information in here.
02:45 Even we speak with the Kagayama team that helped us.
02:50 In our sector 3, it's still a weak point.
02:53 About the changing direction of the bike, the behaviour is not easy to manage.
02:58 But anyway, it's a good weekend.
03:01 We're leading the championship.
03:03 I try to work hard for the next round and try to put my feet on the floor.
03:09 I'm humble because the championship is still longer.
03:12 We will work hard for the Mandala race.
03:15 This is also the track that I don't know very well.
03:22 But I know that in 2 years in World's Pro Bike, the track is very slippery.
03:27 Let's see what we can do in Mandala.
03:29 Anyway, thank you to my fans that always support.
03:33 Especially, JDT fans and Malaysian fans.
03:37 Last but not least, I would like to say thank you to our Royal Highness,
03:42 Tengku Makoto Johor.
03:44 It's TNJ, my boss.
03:47 I will do better in the next round and try to be ready for the next race.
03:53 Peace.
