Even after more than a decade of racing, Shanti Pereira still gets nervous.

It is a reminder that nerves are part of competing and that courage means stepping onto the track and performing despite them.

Behind every race are years of hard work, discipline and resilience. As Shanti prepares to represent Singapore again on the Asian stage, let’s get behind her and Team Singapore! 🇸🇬💪

All the best at Aichi-Nagoya 2026, Shanti! 🔥
