SEPANG: Young racing star Qabil Irfan Azlan staged a sensational comeback at the Moto4 Asia Cup in Sepang today. After being sidelined for two months due to a severe injury, the 14-year-old secured an impressive victory in the first race. Qabil triumphed by a mere 0.166 seconds over Indonesia's Bintang Pranata, with Qayyim Razali completing the podium in third place.

Qabil emphasized the importance of prioritizing his leg's recovery for future races, vowing to deliver a strong performance in the upcoming round. With race two scheduled for the following day, Qabil remains motivated and determined to secure another top result for Malaysia.
