The nationwide hunt for the final driver line-up of the Etios Motor Racing (EMR) series came to an end last weekend after fourty young racing hopefuls battled it out in their Etios Motor Racing cars.
Of them, only the selected twenty-five will be driving the Etios in its racing avatar this year at special Exhibition races in August and October, and next year at the inaugural season of Toyota’s single-make racing series. The entire selection process was planned in order to select the most talented racers in India within the age groups of 15-24 years, These young racers will now get an exciting opportunity to prove their mettle in the Indian motor racing scene as well as overseas. This move is solely focused on developing motor sports in India at the grass roots level.
Mr. Sandeep Singh, Deputy Managing Director-Marketing, said, “We had young aspiring racing drivers from all over India, and it was truly heartening to witness the passion and enthusiasm they showed for motorsport at the various EMR camps. This is only the beginning, and we have a lot of excitement in store, starting with the exhibition races in August and October this year.” All we can look forward is two things exceptional talent and amazing races and hopefully one day India too will get it’s very own Michael Schumacher.
