PETALING JAYA: A picture tells a thousand words, at least, that was the case with rider Hafizh Syahrin Abdullah.

It was not his entry under Johor Darul Takzim (JDT) Racing Team that created a buzz ahead of the Asian Road Racing Championship (ARRC) starting at Chang International Circuit in Thailand this weekend but rather, it was the face of Regent of Johor Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim displayed on the back of his blue and red coloured helmet that stole the show. The picture depicted TMJ putting a finger to his lips and saying “shhh” (the universal symbol for silence).
