Deepak Ravikumar dominated the first round of the MRF-MMSC-FMSCI National car racing championships here this weekend with three wins and two podium finishes in six races as he led a Team Performance Racing sweep in both Indian junior Touring cars and Formula LGB 1300 categories.
Ravikumar shuttled between the two categories barely without a pause to underline his supreme fitness and adaptability to conditions that turned wet on Sunday, which saw persistent light drizzle. He reserved his best for the three Touring cars races that had a combined 17-car grid comprising three categories, the Indian Touring cars, IJTC and Super Stock, winning two races and notching a second-place finish behind team-mate Akkineni Anand Prasad.
