2024 National Karting Champion (Micromax)

RIVAAN DEV PREETHAM

Meet Rivaan

Join the thrilling journey of Rivaan Dev Preetham, a phenomenal ten-year-old karting prodigy and the offspring of the seven-time National Motorcycling Champion, Preetham Dev Moses. Now reigning as the No. 1 in India, Rivaan is set to represent the nation in the World Karting Championship Finals at the prestigious Sakhir International F1 Circuit in Bahrain this December, with aspirations for the Formula One World Championship.

Rivaan's remarkable ascent began as a rookie in the FMCSI National Karting Championships in 2022, and in 2023, he asserted his dominance by clinching the overall championship trophy at the Meco Meritus Cup. Having fearlessly conquered the MECO-FMSCI National Karting Championship 2023 in the Under 12 Micro Max category, Rivaan, finishing on the podium four of five rounds and three wins under his belt, etched his name as one of the youngest National Champions in the competition's history.
