Hakim Danish Rises to the Occasion at Moto3 Portuguese GP!
PORTIMAO, Portugal - Malaysian racing sensation Muhammad Hakim Danish Ramli successfully completed his second-ever Moto3 World Championship race, fulfilling his role as a crucial replacement rider for the FRINSA MT Helmets-MSi Racing Team at the 2025 Portuguese Grand Prix (November 7–9) at the challenging Algarve International Circuit.
The 18-year-old, who stepped in for the injured Ryusei Yamanaka, leveraged this golden opportunity to gain valuable experience ahead of his full-season Moto3 debut with the MSi Racing Team in 2026. Coming off a strong performance in the FIM JuniorGP World Championship in Barcelona, Hakim Danish arrived in Portimão focused squarely on adapting to the pace and pressure of the world stage.
“I will work closely with the team and crew to ensure we are fully prepared and competitive,” Hakim Danish had stated prior to the event, emphasizing his goal to learn as much as possible.
The notoriously undulating "rollercoaster" circuit of Portimão proved to be a stern test, demanding maximum concentration and pinpoint accuracy from the young rider. While the race results remain a detail to be analyzed, his ability to manage the weekend's challenges is a testament to his burgeoning talent.
