Taking a much-needed break from non-stop cricket, India skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni, also a brand ambassador of Speed, visited Indian National Rally Championship and flagged-off the event in Bangalore.
The event had nothing to do with cricket but the flamboyant captain's passion for speed surely couldn't keep him away from the rally. He went for a ride with Arjun Balu, who won his maiden IMG-K1000 rally driving a 200+ hp Mitbushi Lancet Cedia, during the 'Speed Indian National Rally Championship' at the Manyata Tech Park.
The K-1000 rally, in its 35th year of existence, saw some of the most exciting names and teams in motorsports like - the Red Roosters, Team MRF, Thunderbolts etc.
