MANDALIKA - Central Java Governor Ganjar Pranowo came to the Mandalika circuit on the second day, Saturday 19 March with his wife, Siti Atikoh and mingled with the general audience at the Grandstand A Tribune near the starting line.
Ganjar is not like spectators with VIP and deluxe tickets who can enter the circuit area by private car. Ganjar Pranowo had to park far from the circuit.
Like other people, Ganjar had to stand in long lines to take the shuttle bus to the circuit.
From the photo received by the editor, Ganjar could be seen overheating in the Grandstand A Tribune. Together with Siti Atikoh they took turns wearing a Portable Mini Fan.
But Ganjar seems to be enjoying every trip. He took the time to look at the UMKM stands that sell local handicraft products. Even when queuing for buses, Ganjar is actually fun to interact with the community.
Almost all day Ganjar on the circuit. He watched almost all the sessions. From practice sessions to qualifying for Moto3, Moto2 and MotoGP.
He also shouted when racer Marc Marquez fell twice in the qualifying session. He also clapped his hands in appreciation of Fabio Quartararo who managed to become the fastest racer and took pole position in tomorrow's MotoGP race.
After qualifying, Ganjar left the event. He was ambushed by the audience who asked for a selfie with the white-haired governor.
Looking at the qualification process, Ganjar predicts Quartararo will come out as the winner of the 2022 Mandalika GP. "He will be the world champion in 2021 and tomorrow in pole position, I think he will win," said Ganjar Pranowo.
Regarding the Mandalika Circuit, Ganjar said he was happy with the many developments. Compared to when Ganjar watched the World Super Bike yesterday, according to him, it is now much neater.
"Many buildings are permanent, the arrangement of spectators and pathways is neater, although there are still things that need to be improved," he said.
According to him, the Mandalika GP will bring many benefits to the people of Lombok and NTB. "I saw yesterday that the hotel was full, many residents were selling everywhere, not only on the circuit but also near the hotel. This means that local MSME actors are involved here, and this is good," he said.
