KUALA LUMPUR – Porsche Malaysia represented by Sime Darby Auto Performance is partnering with young driver Nazim Azman and Earl Bamber Motorsports for the inaugural season in this year’s Porsche Carrera Cup Asia.

This alliance aims to nurture local talents and empower the next generation of race drivers.

As they gear up for the next race at Suzuka Circuit, Japan, the Sime Darby Racing Team is poised to captivate racing enthusiasts with their exceptional skills and unwavering determination.

The team will rock batik-inspired livery on the 992-generation 911 GT3 Cup cars, paying homage to Malaysian culture and heritage.

The stunning design highlights their deep connection to the nation and adds a touch of local flavour to the international stage.

Nazim will drive for the Sime Darby Racing Team, bringing a wealth of experience and burning passion for motorsports. 

He aims to demonstrate his skills and make his mark on the global motorsports scene. 

Rounds one and two were held at the Sepang International Circuit in Sepang, while rounds two  and three were held at the Yeongnam circuit in South Korea.

The team faced tough conditions in Korea but stayed focused, and now look forward to redemption in the next rounds.

The team is now gearing up for the next adrenaline-fueled race at Suzuka Circuit, Japan. With its iconic figure-eight layout and challenging corners, the racetrack demands precision and skill. 

Fans can catch the Sime Darby Racing Team live on Porsche Malaysia’s Facebook and YouTube. – The Vibes, June 30, 2023
