Five-time World Powerboat champion Aaron Ciantar is days away from attempting to become the fastest person to ever circumnavigate Malta.

On Friday morning, the racing champion will seek to break the world record Mario Invernizzi had set back in 2016.

He will leave Dock 1 in Cospicua at around 7.30am, with the Enemed-sponsored circumnavigation attempt beginning at Tigne.

For an exclusive interview with Mr Ciantar as well as live video footage of the event, visit the Times of Malta website on Friday morning.
