Japan took control of the Mixed Team Relay Super Sprint from the start, winning in 1:42:46 at the Sofitel Hotel course. The quartet of Yukiho Okuma, Canta Ine, Tsubomi Yokokura, and Main Takata set the pace early and never looked back, delivering a measured, mistake-free performance.
Indonesia finished second in 1:45:55, led by Aira Martha Ardistri, Wahyu Tri Utomo, Maurizka Nur Azizah, and Keannan Fathir Arrashy. Their steady transitions and consistent bike leg kept them comfortably ahead of Hong Kong in the final kilometre.
Hong Kong, China secured bronze in 1:47:38. Anchored by Ngai Chun Ting, the team of Lok Tung Wong, Chak Yan Wan, and Oi Yin Chan maintained discipline through the final exchanges to stay clear of Thailand, who placed fourth.
Thailand, Kyrgyzstan, and Singapore completed the classified finishers. China, Kazakhstan, and Bahrain were disqualified, with Bahrain’s mixed team — Sofya Aloraibi, Omar Ali, Lulwa Aldoseri, and Albara Alromaihi — ruled out after an early transition infraction.
