ANY sport in any country needs to be cultivated. It is not easy to find the best sports persons to represent your country on the world stage. It is an arduous process that takes time, work, patience, and a conducive environment. The same goes for motorsports. If you take the example of MotoGP, Italy and Spain are far ahead. Other countries are catching up but for now, these two are the nations to look up to.
A lot of it can be attributed to the structured approach to nurturing talent from a young age. Unfortunately, the reach of motorsports in India remains limited even today and because of it being an expensive sport, a lot of the talent that resides in our great nation never even makes it to the fore. Due to the consistent efforts of some people and entities though, things are starting to change. One such entity is Castrol POWER1.
After spending more than a century revolutionizing motorsports with their Castrol POWER1 lubricants, the brand has also been actively involved in cultivating and nurturing motorcycle racing and motorcycle racers. Staying true to their commitment, Castrol POWER1 partnered with Castrol Honda LCR MotoGP Team, Viacom18, and RACR to organize Castrol POWER1 presents India’s Ultimate Motostar on MTV, a nationwide talent hunt to bring the best racing talent in the country to the forefront, with the winners getting the opportunity to be trained by the Castrol Honda LCR MotoGP Team in Europe!
