00:08 Vroom vroom!
00:10 I know, I know.
00:11 In the third round of the Capri for the CP150 category,
00:15 a name that is no stranger to motorbike racing,
00:18 Syafiq Rasul, who is also the champion of the CP125 RAC 2022,
00:23 has another side besides being a rider.
00:26 Oh, there's another side?
00:27 Yes.
00:28 We all need to know how to inspire young people who have the same interest.
00:34 And Zaki Zainal, let's follow the report from Zaki.
00:39 In 2014, he was a sensation as the best rider in the Asia Talent Cup.
00:46 After that, he was detained and sentenced to two years in prison.
00:53 In 2017, he returned to be the best rider in the ONE XOX TKK RAC team.
01:00 And besides being a rider, he is also one of the best mechanics here.
01:05 Who is he if not Syafiq Rasul?
01:08 When he became a rider who was in his prime in 2017,
01:18 he also became a mechanic who is considered a quality in a company
01:23 known as the TKKR Racing Team.
01:26 At the same time I competed with the TKKR team,
01:30 I worked here as a mechanic.
01:35 Every Monday to Saturday, I worked at TKKR Garage.
01:41 Did his mechanical skills help him to understand more about the gears he rides?
01:46 I learned a lot from mechanics about engines.
01:51 At that time, I was empty and didn't know how to open it.
01:56 Now I can open it.
01:59 I can open the engine and service it.
02:02 And of course, there are challenges when you become a mechanic.
02:06 And for that, the anger has never been released from what you have been through.
02:12 I was angry with the boss because I didn't perform well on the track.
02:16 I didn't get a good result for the team.
02:19 Telling the story of the boss who was angry with Syafiq Rasul,
02:25 and this is something that Bobby Farid wants to say.
02:29 Syafiq is a rider who was created to race on big stages,
02:35 not small stages.
02:37 And when he became the champion of CP125 in 2022,
02:44 there was a little bit of a sense that he could control the Cuprake stage.
02:52 But in the world of Cuprake, teams that are not factories are quite difficult to compete with.
02:57 That's why most of the best riders in Malaysia are more likely to be in the Cuprake stage.
03:04 Most of the best riders in Malaysia are more likely to be in the factory stage,
03:09 with better engine and better support.
03:13 That's the story and inspiration from two great people in the 1SX TKT RST team.
03:23 Bobby Farid, the rider of Baskar, and the great rider, Syafiq Rasul.
03:28 I hope that the third round of the Cuprake will be held in Littasepah on 1-2 June.
