JAKARTA – Indonesian racer Wahyu Nugroho is ready to continue his struggle at international level competitions. He will go down in the second series of the Yamaha R3 bLU cRU European Cup 2022 racing event.

The race will take place at the Assen circuit, the Netherlands, on April 22-23 2022. The rider from Boyolali, Central Java, is so optimistic that he can achieve the best results.

This confidence emerged after successfully finishing 4th in the second race of the inaugural series in Aragon, Spain, on April 8-9 2022.

"I feel very happy and will try to get even better results in Round 2. Here I enjoy it and have done several exercises," Wahyu said in an official statement.

While at Aragon, Wahyu finished with a very narrow time gap from the three drivers who occupy the leading position. He was recorded to only have a time difference of 0.064 seconds.

Wahyu will try to maintain this positive note in the Netherlands. Especially at this time, the Yamaha Racing Indonesia-assisted racer is ranked 5th in the R3 bLU cRU European Cup 2022 standing points with a total of 21 points.

This achievement is clearly an extraordinary thing. The reason is, he is a rookie or newcomer to the R3 bLU cRU European Cup 2022

"I have also started to adapt to the YFZ-R3 motorbike, hopefully it can be even better. I already know the layout and character of the Assen circuit from video races and video games. And I will try it for racing in this series," said Wahyu.

Of course, it will be a challenge for Wahyu Nugroho to quickly adapt to the Dutch Assen track, which he is familiar with for the first time. The Dutch Assen circuit has a length of 4.5 km and a menu of 18 bends.
