Nope. Haven't got any communication. But looking at the way the contest was put up, there is no wonder. Wonder how just twenty participants can be selected looking at the way they judge.

You two would be really surprised to note that the finalists were decided just a few days after the 2nd leg ended.

Looked like a silent affair. The names of the winners were put up online. This happened looooong back.

For the third time, even after putting up a good performance at the 2nd leg, I haven't made it to the 3rd leg. Guess its the same for many.

In its 4th season to hunt for India’s safest young driver, Sudeep Ranjan Mishra from Kolkata was declared the winner of Maruti Suzuki Auto Car Young Driver Contest. He was awarded a new A-Star and declared as the brand ambassador for safe driving by Maruti Suzuki.

Visakh Susan Vincent from Kochi and Mudit Agarwal from Kolkata were the first and second runners-up respectively. Srushty Parsana from Mumbai won the best driver in the women category.

About 21,000 participants from across the country entered the contest this year. They competed to test their knowledge about traffic rules, road safety and real-world driving skills. All participants were required to between the age of 18 and 30, with a valid driving license.

The contest is a part of Maruti Suzuki’s efforts to promote safe driving, especially among the youth.

It was held in three phases. In the first phase, competitors had to register for an online theory test on traffic rules, awareness of road safety and knowledge of their cars. Out of all the applicants, 2,000 made it to the next phase, which tested their driving skills and knowledge. The 20 who made it to the finals then underwent a practical driving test at the Institute of Driving Training & Research (IDTR), Sarai Kale Khan. Here the winner was selected on various parameters of driving and manoeuvring the car.

The tests were conducted with the help of Maruti Driving Schools and IDTR, who provided the space and expertise to judge the contestants.
