The 23rd edition of the JK Tyre FMSCI Indian National Racing Championship 2019 concluded at the Buddh International Circuit yesterday with Ducati India’s riders Rajini Krishnan and Dilip Lalwani bagging the first and the second positions in race two of the superbike category.
Both riders were competing astride the Ducati Panigale V4 S and the bikes were running on OEM stock fitments. Neharika Yadav, India’s only woman to race in the 1000cc category, successfully finished the race on her 899 Panigale. With over eleven superbikes on the grid, Ducati had the largest presence in the championship. Bhumik Lalwani – official pilot of Ducati India’s dealer partner team, Ducati North Star Automotive, secured the championship finishing first and fourth in race one and two respectively. Dilip Lalwani finished second overall.
On this occasion, Sergi Canovas, MD, Ducati India said, “We are extremely proud of our riders’ performance at this year’s JK Tyre National Racing Championships, which is not only one of the biggest but also one of the most competitive racing events in the country. I heartily congratulate Rajini Krishnan, Dilip Lalwani and Bhumik Lalwani on their stellar performance with the supremely capable Panigale V4 S being their weapon of choice. It feels great to witness and interact with the growing motorsport community in India. I am confident that next year will be even bigger”.
