The rally was flagged off from Belapur by Nilesh Garg – Channel Sales Head, Gulf Oil Lubricants. Forty riders battled steep inclines, hairpins and water-logged stretches over gravel and mud to partake in the rally. Only 36 riders managed to scrape through to the finish line including many first-timers. Manjeet Singh Bassan, who has been winning the Rally on his LML Vespa scooter, won the 111cc-160cc class with a timing of 35 minutes and 37 seconds. Mohammed Ali Khan from Bhopal won the rookie award for his spirited riding and overall fourth position to take home the late Firdosh Vajifdar trophy.

The Gulf Monsoon Scooter Rally is the only scooter dedicated rally held annually in Mumbai by the FMSCI and is an excellent learning platform for newbies who would want to explore the world of motorsport in India.
