Chiranth Vishwanath breezes to Super Sport win, sets lap record at MRF INRC Round 3 in Chennai

Bengaluru’s Chiranth Vishwanath produced a dominant ride to win the Super Sport 301-400cc Open race in the third round of the MRF Indian National Racing Challenge 2W 2026, at the Madras International Circuit in Chennai on Saturday.

The 19-year-old started eighth on the grid because of a penalty. He was second by Turn 4 of the opening lap and passed Petronas TVS Racing team-mate and pole-sitter Sarthak Chavan midway through the six-lap race. He then pulled away and set a lap record of 1:47.198. Sarthak, who turned 20 a day earlier, settled for second, and 18-year-old Rakshith Dave completed a Petronas TVS podium sweep.

Savion Sabu (MadRabbit Racing) won the Pro-Stock 200cc Open race, cut to three laps by two red flags, for his second victory in five starts. KK Anandhu (Veedol C2 Racing) won twice, taking Stock 301-400cc from P7 and Super Stock 165cc Intermediate, where pole-sitter Ann Jennifer’s unbeaten run ended with a first-lap retirement. Rockers Racing’s Senthil Kumar and Mathana Kumar went 1-2 in Super Stock 301-400cc, ending Kabilesh Rajini Krishnan’s three-win streak. Surya Reddy won the shortened Stock 165cc Novice race.
