Career
125cc World Championship
Born in Banting, Selangor, Malaysia, Khairuddin made his debut in the 125cc world championship at the 2009 Malaysian Grand Prix where he finished 20th. In 2010, Khairuddin competed in his first full season on board an Aprilia for the Air Asia-Sepang International Circuit.
Moto3 World Championship
Khairuddin finally achieved his first ever Moto3 podium as he finished in second position at the 2012 Portuguese Grand Prix,[1] and achieved the first pole position by a Malaysian rider in any class at his home race in October 2012.[2] Khairuddin led for most of the race, but finished second behind team-mate Sandro Cortese, after Cortese made a final-lap pass.
