After losing his spot in KTM Tech3 for the 2020 MotoGP season, Malaysian racer Hafizh Syahrin, a.k.a. “El Pescao” or “The Fish”, will ride for Moto2 team Aspar Team from Spain. Hafizh made the annoucement during a signing ceremony with clothing brand Primavalet as its brand ambassador.
A less than stellar season on the Red Bull KTM Tech 3 GP16 MotoGP bike saw Hafizh languishing at the rear of the grid. Hafizh’s team mate Johann Zarco showed similar dismal results with the French-Hungarian rider leaving the team mid-season.
Meanwhile, the Malaysian Ministry of Youth and Sports has emerged as Hafizh’s main sponsor for the 2020 Moto2 season. Speaking on the matter, Hafizh said discussions are still ongoing as to the value of sponsorship.

It is no shame to take a step back and try again. A worthy champion isn’t born from success but from the failures he goes thru and conquer. Just as Proton is doing, when you conquer your failures you will reap the rewards as champion eventually.
Agreed, this lad has determination, no doubt about it, but age is catching up. The main issue is that M’sia seriously lacks grass roots racing programs to recognize and then nurture young champions from an early age. As I have mentioned, kapcai racing does not count because the balance is different and the smallest sized bike to go racing is 250 – 300cc

Last chance to prove yourself hafiz. If still no win this year I say save the tax payers money for someone else.
