True to the saying “the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree,” it made mother “Benz Prikthai” and “Father Por” beam with pride they could hardly contain as their two speedy heirs teamed up to make a name for themselves on the track at the SUPER KART THAILAND 2026 Round 2 youth go-kart competition held at Bira Circuit in Pattaya.
In this event, their talented son “Nong McLaren” (Master Phemyaphat), just 8 years old, drove racecar number 99 with seasoned skill, leading from start to finish to claim the championship trophy in the 8–9 year-old youth category—truly living up to his McLaren namesake! Meanwhile, his elder sister “Nong Ferrari” (Miss Pitchamanchu), 12 years old, was equally fierce behind the wheel of car number 99, competing against more than 30 male racers to secure 4th place in the SKT category and rank 9th overall. She stepped up to the podium with a trophy, showcasing the strength of Thai female racers on the world stage.
Mother Benz shared, “As a mother, seeing my children dedicate themselves to practice and compete in what they love is a great source of family pride. Each race is not just about the results, but a lesson in focus, responsibility, discipline, and learning to improve from every competition. Victory doesn’t come from speed alone; it reflects their growth gained from racing experience, which is a vital skill for them. Congratulations to ‘Nong McLaren’ on winning the first race of the season. We will continue to cheer for both ‘McLaren and Ferrari’ at every upcoming event.” The siblings’ impressive first step toward a global racing career has fans ready to support “McLaren - Ferrari” in the next races.
