Petronas SRT reveal impact of virus and what’s in store for 2021


One for the album: Petronas Sepang Racing Team won the Independent Team award in the just concluded MotoGP season.

Now that the dust has settled on the 2020 MotoGP season, Petronas Sepang Racing Team (SRT) principal Datuk Razlan Razali and team director Johan Stigefelt, retrospectively revealed to StarSport’s LIM TEIK HUAT the unpredictable season and what the future holds.

Q: How difficult was Covid-19 truncated season? Razlan: To begin with there was uncertainty from the start. Fortunately the season went ahead in July and it went well. We all managed to stay safe and only two people from our entire team tested positive. They were from staff outside the circuit which means the protocols implemented by Dorna, a sports management company, worked very well.
