Asia Max Challenge 2018 Sepang Karting Circuit (MYS) 18 March, Round 1 – 15 April, Round 2

About sixty drivers competed in the first round of the Asia Max Challenge. This first appointment was broadcast in live streaming, an indispensable service that, however, requires some improvement. The hot temperatures of this race weekend was unbearable; to cool things off, it rained heavily during the second heat of the DD2. Race interrupted, of course, to allow competitors to mount rain tires. The spectators didn’t seem to mind, stayed on to show their support to their favorites on a wet track. The duel between Senna Noor and Tai Zulberti gifted fans with a great show and the audience was appreciative. In the end, Senna succeeded, capable of holding off the pressure of rival Tai Zulberti. Ariff Amran finished third.

RACE REPORT MICROMAX - Ranvir Singh confirmed being the driver to beat. In this first appointment Ranvir immediately took the lead and created a gap. For his rivals, there was nothing they could do. In the qualifying sessions his mates of Team DRM Motorsports were equally fast, taking the three positions behind him. But it was in the race that Ranvir came to the fore, made the difference, moved ahead, while the trio got caught in a tussle, lost positions. The fight at the finish rewards Adam Mikail, 2P, while Kittinat Lueangarunchai and Aditya Wibowo finished respectively 3rd and 4th place. 5th place for Vijay Arrendra, climbing from ninth position.
