12-year-old motorc🌳ycle racing fan Shaina Salvia interviews fellow Indonesian Galang Hendra Pratama, who took his first World Supersport 300 race win of the year - leading every lap from pole position on his Yamaha R3 - at Brno…

Shaina Salvia A. S.:

Congratulations on your ൲win! What 🧸was it that made you so fast in that race?

Galang Hendra:

I don't know, maybe I'm lucky today! But from the start I tried to push hard 🐼in the first and second lap𝓡s and I made a big three-second gap to the other riders. So finally, I can get this first position!

I al𒆙so want to s🦹ay hello and thank-you to all my Indonesian fans.

Shaina Salvia A. S.:

Did the change in regulations help your bike? (New combined rider and bike minimum weight of 205kg f🅠or Yamaha, 208kg for KTM, 215kg for Hon🐻da and Kawasaki)

Galang Hendra:

I think it was not so different in the end, the regulations. Because yes Carraওsco is 8kg more but some of the other riders 🍒are now 8kg less, for example.

For me, as a rider, the most important thing now is to keep🌱 focused, never give up and try to learn a✅ll the tracks.

Shaina Salvia A. S.:

What do you expect for the next race?

Galang Hendra:

For Misano I will try to keeܫp focus and do my best because Misano is my favourite track, there are many slow corners and maybe it will be a good track for Yamaha.

Shaina Salvia A. S.:

What is your target for this season?

Galang Hendra:

My first target was the world championship, but after we saw the unfair regulations at the start of the season it was difficult for Yama♛ha. Now I🌟 hope to stay on the podium at every round.

Shaina Salvia A. S.:

Do you have any plans for the holidays?

Galang Hendra:

When I return to Indonesia, I want to eat Gudeg! (Special food from Yogyakarta). Because I'm from Yogyakarta, so I miss Gudeg🍸 a lot. Sometimes I look for Gudeg [in Europe] but they don't have it!
