According to Avik, this was the toughest race of his life, and the most special one. He is the first Bangladeshi racer to finish a 300 km race alone, which is the same distance as F1 races.
Avik Anwar keeps creating history on race tracks for Bangladesh. After becoming the first-ever international championship winner from Bangladesh last year, he won the final round and clinched P3 in the Malaysian Championship series on Sunday racing 300 km alone in three hours.
He missed the first place by only 2 points.
According to Avik, this was the toughest race of his life, and the most special one. He is the first Bangladeshi racer to finish a 300 km race alone, which is the same distance as F1 races.
"I've never done a three-hour race alone before. This is the most special one," Avik told The Business Standard (TBS) after his remarkable feat.
The weather was adverse on the race day. The race was red-flagged due to rain at the start.
"Once the race resumed I drove really well, and consistently. That's why I could do a lot of wonders," he said.
No racer from Bangladesh achieved the feat before, racing 300 km alone.
The Malaysia Championship Series is a national racing series promoted and organized by Sepang International Circuit as an initiative to promote and develop 4-wheel racing sports in Malaysia.
