Vietnamese to race in Asian Challenge Motorcycling Championship

Xinhua, April 15, 2015 Adjust font size:

Nguyen Hoang Anh Dung will represent Vietnam at the Suzuki Asian Challenge Motorcycling Championship 2015 in Sepang of Malaysia, local Vietnam News daily reported Wednesday.

It is the first time a Vietnamese racer will compete at an international motorcycling competition.

Dung finished second behind Nguyen Quang Khai at a national tournament held in southern Ben Tre province early March.

In Sepang, riders will use the Suzuki Raider R150. The first round will be held on Sunday where Dung will race with 16 rivals.

The 24-year-old Dung started racing two years ago. His best result was a title at the Exciter R135 race earlier this year in Can Tho province. Endite
