Royal Enfield Continental GT Cup: Top driver Tijil Rao moved one step closer to clinching the overall drivers’ championship in the Formula LGB4 category in the grand finals of the 27th National Racing Championship here on Saturday. On an action-filled day at the Kari Motor Speedway, Tijil, who was runner-up in the same category last year, showed that he has learned fast from his disappointment and improved by leaps and bounds in the 2024 season.

In the lone race of Saturday, Tijil (Dark Don Racing) timed 23.02.750 minutes in 15 laps to seal the victory. Saran Vikram from Momentum Sports was second, in 23:03.725 while Dhruv Goswami (MSport) was third at 23:04. 504.

Though Tijil started second on the grid, he had no problem in surging ahead. He has been in dominant form, after having finished runner-up in the 2023 season. His rise from the ranks of karting five years ago to racing cars in the LGB4 category has been marked by consistency this season, through all the rounds.
