Sepang, Malaysia — 30 November 2025
Malaysian motorsport athlete Leona Chin delivered a standout performance at the 2025 Lotus Cup
China season finale, finishing 3rd overall and 3rd in the SD Class in Race 2 at the Sepang International
Circuit.

Racing under tight budget constraints and forced to reuse worn tires from Race 1, Leona battled a
highly competitive international field featuring drivers from China, Singapore, the United Kingdom, and
Canada. While many competitors started Race 2 on fresh tires, Leona maintained strong pace and
consistency over the 21-lap race, recording a best lap of 2:27.236 to secure a well-earned podium.

“This podium feels extra meaningful because it wasn’t an easy weekend,” Leona shared. “With limited
sponsorship, we had to stretch our resources and continue on used tires while others had new sets. But I
couldn’t have done it without my amazing team — the pitstop was perfect, and I couldn’t ask for more.
Their support kept me fighting all the way to the end.”

Her result underscores her resilience, racecraft, and ability to deliver strong performances even under
challenging circumstances. The Sepang round served as the final stop of the 2025 Lotus Cup China
season, attracting competitive teams and drivers from across the region and beyond.
