The 17-year-old Chiranth Vishwanath came up with two stunning rides to grab pole positions in both the premier Pro-Stock categories in the fourth and penultimate round of the MRF MMSC FMSCI Indian National Motorcycle Racing Championship 2024 on Friday.
For Chiranth, it was his maiden pole position in the Pro-Stock 301-400cc Open category, and he followed it up by taking P1 in the Pro-Stock 165cc Open class for a rare double. The qualifying sessions dished out exciting fare, with all pole-sitters leaving it very late before delivering the hot laps for P1 slots.
