The year 2020 was one of previously unknown hardship and ordeals, with the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic felt not just in Malaysia but around the globe. It was a year in which Malaysia Speed Festival (MSF) confronted the challenges head-on.
Unfortunately, the much-awaited brand new MSF Touge Hillclimb event series was unable to get off the ground, initially due to local council permit issues for Round 1 at Janda Baik, and when the pandemic hit, there was a long wait-and-see period for which we were unable to mobilise.
Elsewhere, MSF SuperBikes, which was entering its third successful year and saw Ducati Owners Club Malaysia (DOCM) taking a slot with a full quota of Ducati owner-racers, was left stuck at the start line grid with the “one-minute to go” board showing.
