"Kita harus pintar cari celah-celah juga — be smart, stay consistent. The win will come."

Muhammad Andri Abirezky Rangkuti is Indonesian motorsport's most explosive young talent. Born in 2000 in Bogor, West Java, Andri entered competitive racing at 18 — and within six years claimed two consecutive national championship titles in the ITCR 1200 Rising Star class. His journey spans four wheels and the sky: he is also a Gold Medalist in Aero Modeling at PON Papua XX (2021), representing the Jawa Barat contingent.

Before Honda Racing Indonesia, Andri sharpened his racecraft through Honda's one-make race ecosystem — competing in the ITCR 1500, Honda Jazz Speed Challenge (HJSC), and the Honda City Hatchback RS Speed Challenge (HCHSC). He claimed the HJSC Rising Class Championship (2021), reached the podium as P3 in HCHSC Master category, and became National Seeded B Champion at IDMC (Indonesia Digital Motorsport Championship) — all proving his readiness for the factory stage.

Joining Honda Racing Indonesia in early 2024 alongside Alvin and Avila Bahar, Andri hit the ground running. Despite starting Series 1 with challenges, he grew sharply — winning Series 2 and building momentum to clinch the ITCR 1200 Rising Star National Championship with 62 championship points. It completed HRI's historic treble-winners season: three national titles across three classes. A debut most drivers only dream of.

In 2025, Andri returned with greater confidence and deeper racecraft. Racing across Sirkuit Sentul and Sirkuit Internasional Mandalika, he delivered decisive performances — including a P1 at Mandalika Round 1 (27:05.719 / best lap 2:04.133 / top speed 146.30 km/h) and a dominant Round 4 win (25:08.860 / best lap 2:05.519 / top speed 144.20 km/h). His measured approach — "bermain aman, konsisten" — sealed his second consecutive Rising Star national title, confirming him as ITCR 1200's defining next-generation force.
