Hero MotoSports Team Rally, the motor-sport division of two-wheeler manufacturer, Hero MotoCorp Ltd. (HMCL), has showed a glimpse of their off-roading prowess at the Hero Centre of Innovation and Technology (CIT), Jaipur. Marking their first visit to the country, since the formation of the division in May 2016, the entire team exuded confidence ahead of the grueling Oilibya Rally in Morocco, the final stepping-stone before Dakar 2017.
The team riders including CS Santosh, India’s most accomplished off-road rider and Joaquim Rodrigues, highly-experienced and versatile rider from Portugal, showcased the man and machine capabilities of the Team, on a specially designed off-road track. Designed under the supervision of French and German engineers, the track provided exciting obstacles for the riders on their upgraded Speedbrain 450 rally bikes.
In May 2016, Hero MotoCorp forayed into the world of motorcycle rally racing by entering into a strategic partnership with Speedbrain GmbH, the German off-road racing specialist to form Hero MotoCorp Team Rally. In addition to participating in international rallies across the globe, the team will also assist in development and testing of new Hero vehicles concepts, using the data collected from the races.
The team is being headed by Mr. Wolfgang Fischer, Managing Director, Speedbrain and is working under the direct supervision of Dr. Markus Braunsperger, Chief Technology Officer (CTO), Hero MotoCorp.
