Our drivers and riders ensured a podium finish in more or less all the events they participated in. Isn’t that commendable? This year, Red Rooster Racing aspires to make a mark at an International level by extending our participation to two more events, which include Formula 2 and Formula BMW Pacific series. We are hopeful to take Indian motor sports to a whole new level,” said Dinesh at the launch of the team’s 2009 motorsport programme.
