2020 Tokyo Olympics silver medalist in the men’s keirin event, Datuk Azizulhasni Awang, showcased his powerful cycling skills when he grabbed the silver medal in the keirin event at the UCI Track Nations Cup in Jakarta, Indonesia.
In the race held at the Jakarta International Velodrome, Azizulhasni was only 0.024 seconds behind the gold medalist, Harrie Lavreysen from the Netherlands. The former world champion proved that he is still a formidable contender for the medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Another national keirin cyclist, Mohd Shah Firdaus Sahrom, was left stunned when he was involved in an accident with Sam Dakin from New Zealand in the final moments of the race.
