By lap 7, the leading trio had pulled an 8 second gap from the chasing group. On lap 8, Kasma retook the lead from Azroy, setting up an intense fight to the finish.
The drama peaked on the final lap, where Azroy executed a decisive move on the final turn to reclaim the lead from Kasma. Helmi followed closely behind in third, while Amir overtook Adam for fourth.

Azroy said, "Today’s weather was hot and the race was tough. I also experienced rear brake issues midway through, which slowed me down a bit. But with a few laps left, I just pushed through. In the last lap battle with Kasma, I honestly wasn’t sure if I could win, but I gave it a shot. Alhamdulillah, luck was on my side today. Tomorrow, we have Race 2, and I hope we can repeat today’s performance."

AFIF HELD OFF LATE CHALLENGE
The 2025 AEON CREDIT MAM MALAYSIA SUPERBIKE CHAMPIONSHIP kicked off Round 2 today at the iconic PETRONAS Sepang International Circuit with a thrilling Race 1 in the MSBK250 A category. In an exciting showdown, Ahmad Afif Amran of SUPERFAST JRT X RAPIDO clinched the win, securing a hard-fought victory.
Afif's impressive performance began in the qualifying session, where he clocked the fastest lap time of 2'24.969s, earning pole position. He was closely followed by his teammate, Md Akid Aziz, who secured second position with a time of 2'25.075s. Nguyen Huu Tri of HONDA RACING VIETNAM TEAM rounded out the top three with a time of 2'25.781s.
As the lights went out for the race, Afif and Akid both made strong starts, immediately establishing their positions at the front. However, Irfan Ardiansyah of MAEZTRO NWN SCK HONDA RACING was quick to challenge, keeping pace in third place.
The race was a nail-biting contest, with riders jostling for position over eight intense laps. After a strong start, Afif and Akid continued to battle at the front, with Irfan and Huu Tri not far behind.
On the final lap, Irfan showed remarkable pace, overtaking Afif in an attempt to snatch the win. But Afif went all out and raced past the finishing line to win in 19'40.458s.
Irfan finished second at 19'40.459s, and Akid finished third at 19'40.536s. However, Irfan was dropped by one position due to a track limit violation, which moved Akid up to second place, and Irfan was placed third.
Afif said, "In today’s race, I really tried to maintain a high race pace, but I wasn’t able to, perhaps because the track was too hot. So, I tried to stick to my strategy and attack in the last two laps. I already knew that Irfan would try to overtake on the final lap, so I just accepted it. But perhaps my bike had a slight advantage in the straight sections towards the finish line, and I was able to overtake Irfan at the very last moment."

But this is a blessing from God, and I dedicate this as a gift to my late mother who just passed away. I tried to play it safe and stick to my plan, and today, it was my luck. I hope I can keep this momentum in tomorrow's Race 2."

After the final turn, Alif made a smart move to the front and sped past the finish line to claim victory with a time of 20'19.572s. Haziq secured second place at 20'19.733s, and Shafiq completed the podium in third with 20'19.742s.

Once I found it, I started pushing over the last two laps, catching up with the riders in the front group, one by one. I tried to exit early at the second last turn and stayed close until the final corner. Alhamdulillah, my strategy worked."
