Motul’s Daigo Saito Keeps Asian Drift Championship Title In Indonesia

The last round of the Asian drift championship took place in Indonesia on a very damp track due to heavy rainfall.
Motul was a partner of the first two events in Singapore and in Indonesia, and supports Daigo Saito, one of the best known drift drivers in Asia and the United States, and Joshua Boettchler, a promising Australian driver.
At the end of the Indonesian event, Saito won the title ahead of Tengku Djan who was the 2010 drifting champion.
In a supreme manner, Daigo successively took the lead over Bullzai, Saranon, and the rising European star, Fredric Aasbo, before coming face to face with Djan, whom he failed to pass.
“I in fact like rain," Daigo commented at the end of the race. "I was very much at ease at the start but when I began to drive I realized the track was very slippery and that it wasn’t going to be easy. I’m most relieved with the results and very pleased to have kept my title.”
Daigo has been crowned champion of the Achilles Asian Drift Series once again in 2012. Meanwhile, Joshua Boettchler finished in the championship top 10, after securing a very solid fifth place in Indonesia.
