Hafizh Syahrin made history in 2018, becoming th🍬e first Malaysian to race in t♏he premier MotoGP class. 

Syahrin got the surprise chanc๊e after Jonas Folger withdrew from the competitive Mons💎ter Yamaha Tech3 ride following fatigue issues at the end of 2017.

Syahrin scored 46 points in his𝓡 rookie season for 16th in the world championship and a best result of ninth.

However he struggled༒ after Tech3's switch to KTM machinery for 2019, managing just nine points on the RC16.

The Malaysian then returned to Moto2, with Aspar and then RW Racing, before starting a new era i꧙n the WorldSBK paddock.
