Suspense
and
drama

Earlier,
Jagruti
(Axor
Sparks
Racing),
the
21-year
old
Science
graduate
from
Mumbai
was
kept
guessing
before
confirmation
came
that
she
indeed
was
the
winner
of
the
Girls
(Stock
165cc)
championship,
her
maiden
title,
following
disqualification
of
race
winner,
Lani
Zena
Fernandez
(RACR
Castrol
Power1).

Jagruti
finished
on
81
points
to
Ann
Jennifer’s
(Alpha
Racing)
80.
Until
the
post-race
scrutiny
leading
to
the
disqualification,
Jagruti
was
second
in
the
championship
behind
Alpha
Racing’s
Ann
Jennifer
on
countback
after
the
pair
had
tied
on
points,
but
the
latter
clinching
the
issue
having
won
two
races
to
the
Mumbai
girl’s
none.

Unassailable lead

Unassailable
lead

However,
the
situation
turned
on
its
head
after
Lani
was
disqualified.
All
finishers
moved
up
a
spot,
pushing
Ryhana
Bee
(Pacer
Yamaha)
to
first,
Jagruti
to
second
and
Aditi
Krishnan
(Winverve
Apex
Racing)
to
third,
while
Ann
Jennifer
ended
up
sixth.

Sarvesh
Balappa
(Axor
Sparks
Racing),
who
had
taken
unassailable
lead
coming
into
the
final
round,
kept
it
clean
and
avoided
close
battles
for
a
fourth
place.
His
team-mates
Kayan
Zubin
Patel
and
Rohan
Ramesh
came
in
first
and
second
ahead
of
Chiranth
Vishwanath
(Rookies
Racing).

Rare double

Meanwhile,
Rajini
did
likewise
in
the
concluding
Pro-Stock
301-400cc
Open
race
as
he
was
content
to
follow
the
Petronas
TVS
Racing’s
trio
of
KY
Ahamed,
Jagan
Kumar
and
Deepak
Ravikumar.
Incidentally,
Ahamed
completed
a
double.

“I
took
no
chances
today.
After
all,
I
needed
just
one
more
point
to
win
the
championship.
So,
I
was
happy
to
stay
in
fourth
position
throughout
the
race
behind
the
TVS
boys,”
said
41-year
old
Rajini
who,
incidentally,
had
the
best
lap
(01:53.099)
of
the
race.
