Fairuz Fauzy was running out of options at the end of last season. His family had already paid a bill almost "enough to build a sports complex" to develop his career for the past 10 years. Now more was needed if he was to go further and no help was coming.
Offers came from Formula One teams, but none were going to put him right into a race seat without him having to invest to prove his worth. Millions more were needed if he wanted to prove himself in either GP2 or the Formula Renault 3.5 World Series, even GP2 Asia.
His only other option, A1 Team Malaysia.
This is not Formula One, neither is it a feeder series. This is the business of bringing glory to your country.
Look where Fairuz has put us now. After Round Two in Chengdu today, Malaysia sits atop the championship standings, five points clear of the best of the rest in Ireland and France.
Can't wait for the next round at Sepang!!!
