Defending Champion ARRC AP250 AM Class Fadly Really Cautious With Honda And Yamaha Racers

JAKARTA - The 2022 Asia Road Racing Championship will start soon. The first series will take place at the Chang Circuit, Buriram, Thailand, on March 25-27.

The Asia Production 250 (AP250) class will attract attention. This class is touted as the most prestigious and full of hot competition.

At ARRC 2019, the AP250 class was controlled by Indonesian racer, Andy Muhammad Faldy. The Manual Tech Racing Team racer has ambitions to defend it this year after the ARRC event missed two seasons due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

However, AM Fadly is aware that this will not be easy. The reason is, the rivals have made developments that can make the competition more difficult to predict. In particular he paid attention to the Honda and Yamaha riders.

"This year presents an even bigger challenge for the AP250 riders. The Yamaha and Honda teams must have done a great job on their bikes to ensure the best performance in its capacity," said AM Fadly in the ARRC official website.

"I definitely have to work hard to do my best," he continued.
