The 19-year-old, who competes for the AEON Credit-MT Helmets-MSi team, expressed his gratitude for the Prime Minister's words of support. Anwar encouraged Hakim Danish not to be disheartened and continue striving for improvement in the remaining races of the season. He also met with other young Malaysian riders - Muhammad Qabil Irfan Azlan, Qayyim Razin Razali, and Muhammad Naqib Rifqi Zulhelmi - and reminded them to persevere in the face of challenges, noting that every champion has experienced ups and downs. Hakim Danish, who finished 4.410 seconds behind the Spanish winner Maximo Quiles, showed a strong performance, reaching second place on the 11th lap before being overtaken.
