Aji began his Road to MotoGP™ in the Idemitsu Asia Talent Cup, placing fifth overall in 2018 after taking a win and three podiums. From there, he moved to the Junior Talent Team in the FIM Moto3™ Junior World Championship and has also gained further experience racing in the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup, improving his speed and form in both as his impressive trajectory continues.
The Indonesian will now make his Moto3™ debut at the Emilia-Romagna GP at the classic Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli, a venue where he has some FIM Moto3™ JWCh and Rookies experience, before taking on some equally familiar turf at the stunning Autodromo Internacional do Algarve.
