FAIRUZ FAUZY TARGETS VICTORY AT SILVERSTONE GP CIRCUIT
Fresh from his fantastic win recently at Hungary’s Hungaroring Circuit in the World Series 3.5 by Renault, Malaysian’ Fairuz Fauzy from the MOFAZFortec Motorsport team is raring to progress further in the series by showing his mettle this weekend on the 4th and 5th of July, 2009 at the Silverstone Grand Prix Circuit, in his quest to achieve ultimate motorsport excellence.
Fairuz will be poised to give his finest performance, as Silverstone also happens to be the training ground of the MOFAZFortec Motorsport team, and where most of his motorsport foray has seen the light of day. Practically growing up on the Silverstone track, Fairuz looks set to tap into his breadth of experience and exposure to every inch of the track in order to qualify with the best time, as well as, to repeat his victory and claim his hard-earned place on the podium.
The World Series 3.5 by Renault is, according to many, the penultimate step prior to Formula 1, and is indeed configured to challenge the drivers not only physically, but mentally as well. All teams are provided with cars that have exactly the same specifications and output, and it is entirely up to the driver and his engineering team to fine tune and ‘interact with’ the car to coax out its maximal potential. With his team of dedicated engineers, technicians and support crew, Fairuz will do his very best to again make Malaysia proud, and so that ‘Negaraku’ will once again be played on the loudspeakers for all the motorsports fans out there to witness as part of the ‘Malaysia Boleh!’ quest.
The MOFAZFortec Motorsport team will be on ground at the Silverstone Grand Prix Circuit beginning on the 2nd of July to prepare the car, as well as, allow Fairuz to provide input into putting in final tweaks to the car for better performance. All eyes are on Fairuz as he is the sole Asian, let alone Malaysian, to be pitted against a gathering of his peers, the cream of the crop of the European Motorsport circle.
Despite the challenges, and despite the recognition that he hardly gets for his unwavering efforts to bring glory for the country in global motorsports, Fairuz bravely soldiers on, destined to tread the path of attaining success, not only in the field he has committed himself into, but also as a loyal son, husband, father and icon, for Malaysia and beyond.
