Dramatical Victory Andi Gilang At ARRC Malaysia 2022 Makes Indonesia Raya Berkumandang At The Sepang Circuit

JAKARTA - The national anthem Indonesia Raya is playing at the Sepang Circuit, Malaysia, Saturday, October 8, 2022. That was thanks to a dramatic victory achieved by Indonesian racer Andi Farid Idhizar or familiarly called Andi Gilang.

Astra Honda Racing Team racer Andi Gilang won the first race of the 2022 Supersport 600 (SS660) Asia Road Racing Championship (ARRC) series Malaysia.

, The former Moto2 world racer managed to outperform Azroy Hakeem with only a time difference of 0.001 seconds!

Riding CBR600RR, Andi Gilang started the race from the leading position. He continued to dominate in the next few laps.

However, with six laps remaining, Gilang had to race faster than Md Helmi Azman's pursuit which was able to take second place from Azroy Hakeem.

The reason is from the difference between 1.2 seconds the competition is getting hotter with a distance of 0.9 seconds between the two. This moment is important for Helmi Azam because he wants to fight for the title at home.

Victory in this series will also mean a lot to Helmi. Because he is currently the top of the SS600 standings with 104 points ahead 22 points from Gilang.

However, three laps before the finish, Helmi even had difficulty overtaking Andi Gilang. His position was reversed and occupied by his team-mate, Azroy.

Andi Gilang continued to try to lock up the position on the last lap and his business succeeded until the race was over. The racer from Bulukumba, South Sulawesi, was finally able to rank first followed by Azroy and followed by Atiratphuvapat in 3rd position on the podium.
