Kankanala Sports Group launches racing motorsport

Kankanala Sports Group (KSG) has signed an exclusive nine-year partnership with FIM E-Explorer to oversee races in India and announced INDE Racing as a new team for the 2024 FIM E-Xplorer season here on Thursday.
This announcement marks India’s first FIM-licensed team which also means that it is the first Indian team to compete in any officially-sanctioned international competition.
INDE Racing is set to participate in every round of Season 2, spanning from February to November, traversing the challenging tracks in Japan, Norway, France, Switzerland and culminating in a triumphant homecoming to India. The team’s lineup will feature Indian trailblazer Aishwarya Pissay, Asia’s first female athlete to win a world championship in two -wheel motorsport. Accompanying her are two seasoned international riders, including Canadian rider Spenser Wilton and Spanish rider Sandra Gomez, the reigning champion of the FIM E-Xplorer World Cup.
Abhishek Reddy Kankanala, the founder of Kankanala Sports Group and INDE Racing, said, “Despite the growing interest in motorsports in India, we have always missed a competitive independent team to cheer for. With the launch of INDE Racing, we aim to break new grounds in Indian motorsports, not only on the racetrack but also in promoting sustainability, gender equality, and the spirit of innovation. By establishing India’s first global motorsports team, we want to inspire a new generation of Indian riders and showcase the nation’s prowess in the world of racing.”
