MANDALIKA - The implementation of the Mandalika MotoGP has been a success. Many compliments were given to the organizers.
After previously the marshal of the Mandalika Circuit was praised for being quick at work, this time it was the National Search and Rescue Agency team that received appreciation.
This appreciation came from Dorna Sport, as the operator of MotoGP. They praised the agility of Basarnas when evacuating Marc Marquez who had an accident during the Mandalika MotoGP warm-up session, Sunday, March 20.
Head of Basarnas Marshal TNI Henri Alfiandi said Marquez did need a quick evacuation process.
"Dear Chief convay our appreciation to Indonesia Search & Rescue for the responsiveness in carrying out their duty," said Henri conveying Dorna's written message via mobile phone (HP) .

Henri himself went directly to the field to observe the readiness of all Basarnas personnel in carrying out relief actions. The three-star general said that his party needed to be directly involved because there was a potential request for help from the SAR team.
Furthermore, he admitted that he was very proud and did not expect Dorna to choose Basarnas to be the SAR security team during the Mandalika MotoGP event.
"Initially they didn't believe it very much, as soon as they were told about the capabilities of Basarnas, Dorna immediately believed and asked Basarnas to be directly involved. This is a surprise and pride for us to be chosen as marshal flag," he said.
On the occasion of the Mandalika MotoGP, Basarnas, which previously had one helicopter ready for the inaugural event, was asked to prepare two helicopters.
In addition, Basarnas has also prepared a Rigid Inflatable Boat (RIB) to anticipate all incidents that require SAR services quickly. RIB is a type of multipurpose boat that can be used for various purposes and in various weather conditions.
"We do not expect any incidents to occur, but all of that is beyond our control, and Basarnas is ready to provide assistance services so that the government and the public feel confident and safe with Basarnas' presence in the international racing arena," said Henri.
