Chennai lad Vishnu Prasad clinched the first-ever JK Racing India Series title at Buddh International Circuit with three podium finishes over the course of the weekend.

The series uses the erstwhile JK Racing Asia series cars centrally prepared by Italian outfit Eurointernational.

Coming into the final round, the title fight had boiled down to Bangalore lad Arjun Maini and Prasad, and the latter's greater experience in single-seater racing seemed to have paid off in the end.

During the course of this particular weekend though, Chittesh Mandody was the man in form as he won three out of three races over the weekend.

As a prize for clinching the title, Prasad has earned himself a free test in European Formula 3 in Italy with Eurointernational.

In Formula LGB 4, Sarosh Hataria was crowned champion, despite being absent from the podium during the course of the weekend with a massive 80-points lead coming into the season finale helping his cause.
