JAKARTA - Hundreds of World Superbike (WSBK) spectators began arriving at the Pertamina Mandalika International Street Circuit, Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara, Friday.

According to Antara, since 09.00 a.m. Central Indonesian Time (WITA) in the west parking lot, at the Mandalika Bazar, which is the point of sale and collection of tickets, the audience has been full. Not only that, but in this place also stands the location of the antigen test.

Ida, a spectator from Jakarta, said that she was happy to be present at the Mandalika Circuit to watch the WSBK race. She admitted that he did not come alone, but with ten other people from Jakarta.

"This is the first time watching WSBK with family and entourage," said Ida at the Mandalika Bazar location, Friday.

She also claimed to be satisfied with the officers' services, starting from the antigen test to taking tickets to watch WSBK.

"In terms of service, I'm satisfied, yes. Even though there are shortcomings. Maybe because this is also new, we can still understand it," explained Ida.

Regarding the existence of the Mandalika Circuit, Ida said she was proud because Indonesia had an international standard circuit.

"As Indonesians, we are very proud that Indonesia has the Mandalika Circuit. This is just WSBK, not MotoGP. We don't know what it will be like because it's already crowded," said Ida.

Meanwhile, another spectator named Hendrik, who is also a resident of Jakarta, said he was happy to be present because he would soon be watching WSBK at the Mandalika Circuit.

"We are happy and proud to be present at the Mandalika Circuit," said Hendrik.

In line with that, Ferry Fajar, who is also a citizen of Jakarta, said he was happy to be in the midst of other spectators who would watch WSBK at the Mandalika Circuit.

"Proud as an Indonesian citizen to have an event like WSBK and later MotoGP. This will certainly become an icon for Indonesia," said Ferry.

He also admitted that he had come to Lombok since Monday, November 15, along with two of his friends from Jakarta to watch WSBK.

"We bought the tickets at Dyandra one month ago. We bought a package that costs IDR 2.4 million," explained Ferry.

While at the WSBK location in Mandalika, he admitted that he did not encounter any problems and was satisfied with the services provided by the officers.

"Thank God, there are no obstacles, the officers direct quite clearly," concluded Ferry.
