Yazid,
Thanks for the great videos.
It was a fantastic end to an exciting season. After a whole year of racing the Junior championship came down to the final race of the final round.
If Afiq had stayed in front of Bryan the championship would have been: Fei Hoong 406, Bryan 406 and Ryan 403.
If Ryan had managed to hold off Calvin and Afiq stayed third the results would have been: Fei Hoong 406, Bryan 406 and Ryan 406!
But Calvin took Ryan cleanly on Lap 2 and you can see Afiq hit trouble with his throttle cable in the video and how he partially overcame it by using his right hand to pull the cable on the front straight for the last few laps.
And you got all the drama on video - brilliant!
All the best to Afiq in the World Finals. He was the best Junior rookie by a mile.
