According to Brig-len Datuk Dr Mohd Zin Bidin, the head of Malaysian FI Medic
Team. providing medical services for an FI race is different from any other event. It
requires top level systematic alertness and readiness, which the military possess.
He said before the actual race day, the team undergoes numerous rehearsals and
they are trained military style to be on their toes at all times.
"All ofus are clad in fireproof jackets and stand under the hot sun for hours."
"We begin work three months before the race Wid within that time, we have to
build a world-class medical facility from scratch."
This means that teem has to be staffed by the right people who are able to work
under tremendous pressure and trying conditions.
Preparation is tedious task as it involves organizing the right logistics, food
requirements, lodging, equipment end transport.
"We also undergo seminars by the FIA and four days of track training:'
Dr Zin said the medic team faces all kinds of danger, such as racing car crashes,
fires and explosions.
He said volunteers also had to undergo training to learn call signs and use
walkie-talkie.
