Ahura Racing’s Viswas Vijayaraj held his nerves in the final lap to finish on top in the premier Formula LGB4 class on the opening day of the second round of the 25th JK Tyre FMSCI National racing championship at the Kari Motor Speedway in Chettipalayam here on Saturday.
After the qualifying rounds in the morning, the post lunch session saw the rain pouring in and, it did throw in a big challenge to the drivers. But the more experienced of the stars in the FLGB4 class managed to bring out their best.
The safety car guided the drivers in the early part of the race and, once it pulled in, after the second lap, the battle royal began. Viswas enjoyed the lead but towards the end it turned out to be tough as MSport’s Vishnu Prasad, the defending champion, was breathing down his neck.
