Indonesian racer Fadillah Arbi Aditama has the opportunity to compete in the 2025 Moto3 Grand Prix (GP) at the Red Bull Ring, Spielberg, Austria, this weekend, as a replacement for Tatchakorn Buasri who suffered a shoulder injury at the Sachsenring series, Germany.
The Astra Honda racer currently leads the provisional standings of the 2025 Asia Road Racing Championship (ARRC) in the Asia Production 250 class. Arbi once scored Indonesia's first podium in the 2023 FIM JuniorGP Catalunya series and has European track experience through the 2023–2024 FIM JuniorGP, as well as competing three times as a wildcard in the 2024 Moto3.
"I am very grateful for the trust placed in me by HRC, Honda Team Asia, and Astra Honda Motor. The challenge will not be easy, but I will strive to give my best," Arbi said in an official statement in Jakarta on Thursday.
Astra Honda Motor Marketing Director, Octavianus Dwi, said this opportunity proves the competitive abilities of AHM's fostered racers on the international stage.
"This is also an inspiration for young Indonesian racers to continue fighting for their dreams," said Octavianus.
Besides Arbi, there are three other Indonesian racers competing in the 2025 MotoGP series. Mario Suryo Aji (Moto2) is recovering from an injury, while two AHRS racers from Yogyakarta, Veda Ega Pratama and M. Kiandra Ramadhipa, are competing in the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup.
Graduates of the Astra Honda Racing School (AHRS) are equipped with racing skills, physical fitness, and communication skills to prepare them to become professional racers at the international level.
