Chennai, Dec 21 (UNI) TVS Racing’s KY Ahamed of Chennai
was declared rider champion in the premier Pro-Stock 301-400cc
category of the MRF MMSC-FMSCI Indian National Motorcycle
Racing Championship which concluded at the MMRT, on Sunday.
The result was withheld last evening due to a protest questioning
the legality of a part (radiator) used in Ahamed’s motorcycle.
The Race Direction, following a scrutiny of the vehicle, turned down
the protest, declaring the part (radiator) legal and that the modification
was in line with the prescribed technical regulations.
Twentythree-year-old Ahamed, who had two wins, finished with a tally
of 121 points in the championship, just five ahead of Bengaluru’s Anish
Damodar Shetty (Race Concepts).
Shetty, 26, had four wins in eight starts, but drew blank in two races in
the final round which cost him dearly in the end.
