PETALING JAYA: Adam Norrodin may not be a winner, but he was given a standing ovation at the Grand Prix of Argentina.

The 17-year-old rookie crashed with 30m to go on the last lap while in second place behind fellow Malaysian Khairul Idham Pawi in the Moto3 class at the treacherous and wet Termas de Rio Hondo track on Sunday.
