National 4W Racing: Double For Bengaluru Teenager Ishaan Madesh; Triple Delight For Ritesh Rai; Deepak Ravikumar
The big story of the weekend was scripted by local ace Ritesh Rai (Buzzing Hornet) who, driving a Volkswagen Polo, walked away with a triple crown, winning all three races in the top-end Indian Touring Cars (ITC) category, displaying impressive pace and nerves to hold off a strong challenge from Coimbatore veteran Arjun Balu (Race Concepts) in a misfiring Honda V-tec. Balu returned to the championship after a year’s break. Defending champion Biren Pithawalla (N1 Racing) from Mumbai, struggling with a turbo issue in his VW Polo, had a P2 and a retirement.
With a speed limiter affecting his start on Saturday when he finished third in Race-1, Ishaan Madesh pulled out all stops today to win both the outings quite comfortably to move within two points of championship leader Arjun Chheda from Pune. Chheda, winner of Race-1, finished second behind Madesh in both races today, with Bengaluru’s Tarun MB completing the podium. Race 3 was affected by a Safety Car period following a three-car pile-up before it was resumed.
