Nottingham, Oct 6 (IANS)
Eight-year-old Ruhaan Alva from Bangalore, driving for team Fusion Motorsport, capped his 2014 stint of karting in Britain with a commendable ninth overall in the final of the Little Green Man Championship at the PF International Circuit.
Ruhaan has moved out of the novice class in which he got several podium places and will progress to the overall category.
"I am happy with the effort and look forward to coming back next year. I was overjoyed when the spectators cheered me for overtaking six other experienced drivers. It gives me confidence. To finish ninth overall feels good, particularly since I am not competing in the novice class anymore," said Ruhaan.
