Malaysia’s rising motorsports sensation, Hakim Danish Ramli, is gear up for a high-stakes transition to the 2026 Moto3 World Championship season. The 18-year-old rider credits his extensive experiences throughout 2025 as the most valuable foundation in maturing his racing style and technical prowess.

Dominating Podiums on the Global Stage

The Terengganu-born rider delivered a stellar performance over the past year. His most notable achievement was securing a spot in the top three overall of the prestigious Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup (RBMRC) series.

In addition to his success in the Rookies Cup, Hakim turned heads in the FIM JuniorGP (JrGP) World Championship by clinching a podium finish, proving his ability to contend with the world’s elite young riders. He concluded the JrGP calendar ranked eighth overall.

A Milestone Moment at Sepang

2025 also marked a significant personal milestone for the 2022 Asia Talent Cup champion when he was granted a ‘wildcard’ entry to compete in the Moto3 class at the Malaysia Grand Prix in Sepang.

“I am deeply grateful for 2025; I learned so much. I’m incredibly happy to have finished in the top three of the RBMRC, secured a podium in JuniorGP, and experienced the pinnacle of racing through my wildcard debut at Sepang,” Hakim shared.

Honoring the Support System

Reflecting on his journey, Hakim expressed his gratitude to the individuals and organizations that have been the catalysts for his success. He extended his appreciation to ZK Racing, MSI Racing, his sponsors, his family, and the fans for their unwavering support.

The Full-Season Mission for 2026

Hakim Danish’s focus has now shifted entirely to his full-season campaign in the 2026 Moto3 World Championship. His arrival on the world stage is highly anticipated by local motorsports fans, eager to see a Malaysian rider competing consistently at the highest level once again.
