I'm very happy with this qualifying result but credit goes to the whole team.
"Alexander Charles Yoong Loong" (, (born 20 July 1976 in Kuala Lumpur), is a Malaysian Chinese race car driver of European and Han Chinese parentage.
Yoong began his career in saloon cars before moving into the Proton one-make series. He later raced in single-seater cars where he won the Malaysian Championship in 1995. He moved into Formula Renault in 1996 with help from sponsors but finished outside the top-10. Yoong consulted his father who believed his son would succeed in lower categories. Yoong decided to drive in Formula Three but dropped out in 1999 after withdrawal from his sponsors. He subsequently went into Formula 3000 and managed to improve despite a horrific crash at Spa-Franchomps during the season. Yoong also raced in Formula Nippon where he achieved no success.
