It was a difficult but sweet weekend for Alvis. He was a bit feverish and his nose was bleeding before the Sunday morning free practice. We made a call for him to skip the free practice and wanted to stop him from the race. It was also a difficult moment for us because he insisted that he was okay and ready for the chrono laps. We finally agreed after consulting the medic and on one condition that he would stop racing if his nose bled again.
During the chronos, Alvis managed to clock the fastest timing only on the last lap. After that, we made sure lots of water kept him hydrated and we took his temperature too. His strong determination enabled him to maintain his lead for the qualification before we had a break for lunch.
This time round, Choo Rui (Alvis's karting kaki) was in the race too. He had improved a lot since his debut in kart racing. Being one of the youngest amongst the 13 minikart racers, Choo Rui came in 6th position with a strong performance.
With his perseverance, Alvis managed to stay in the leading position for the pre-final. During the final, there were some exciting moments with attempts to overtake Alvis by the runner up. Alvis defended his position brilliantly and conquered the checkered flag again with both fists in the air. Bravo Alvis !!!
With Alvis's determination and perseverance to complete and win the race, his passion for racing had grown to a higher level.
