Yogesh Bharguje was another rider to catch the eye. Last season he gave indications of his prowess and carried it on to the first event of this year, emerging a handsome winner in both the races of the Private Expert Class for modified foreign motorcycles upto 260cc.
Riding a Yamaha in the first race, he faced a stiff challenge from Eshan Lokhande (Honda), who had excelled in the final leg of the National Championship in Kolhapur last year, and Mumbai’s Rustom Patel, but stayed cool to finish first.
In the second, astride a Honda, he proved too good for the field, finishing a good length ahead of Sarosh Mulla (Yamaha) and Gaurav Khatri (Suzuki).
