Team Bhalla Royale emerged as
the champions in the Ceat Pune Invitational Supercross League 2014 powered by
Gulf Oil. With 401 points their riders
put on a stellar performance on a tricky track due to heavy rains in the
previous two days.
With no rains on Sunday Dec
14, 2014 and a packed house with more than 10,000, the riders entertained with
top class racing.
In the top most category of
the championship, MX1 (Moto I), there was fierce competition as all the top
bikers tried to outdo each other. Harith Noah of Team Aranha dominated the
entire proceedings as he won both the races (Moto I and Moto 2). Harith Noah
finished undefeated and proved a major contributor to his team.
Team Aranha Racing ended up in
the second position with 399 points whereas Team SKP Highrollers with 364
points ended in the third position.
The most anticipated SX
category gave the crowd an exhilarating experience with international riders
showing their class and skill. Alexander Ivanyutin stood 1st followed by
Anthony Raynard in 2nd place and Ricky Yorks in 3rd place (SX: Points are not
counted in Team Standings)
Speaking on the grand success
of the league, Eeshan Lokhande, former international rider and now Event
Director & Partner, Vilo Events said, “As a sport, Supercross is surely
gaining in a lot of popularity in India. The kind of response we got was
overwhelming. The quality of racing throughout the league has been fantastic.
The league has taken Supercross as a sport to the next level and has given the
sport a huge push.”
Prabhakar Tiwari, GM
Marketing, Ceat India said, “With sold out crowds thronging the venue and
leading to an increase in participation and growing involvement and support
from the Supercross fraternity, the Ceat Pune Invitational League has set a new
bench mark and has revolutionised the sport in India.”
