Motorsport in India

[2] Much before F1 came to India, the country has been organising single-seater Formula races and the Indian National Rally Championship, one of the oldest competitions in the world.

The team based at Silverstone, United Kingdom competed in F1 for ten consecutive seasons starting from 2008–2018.

Since 2018, a team named Amaravati competed until 2019 with driver Jonas Anderson finishing the season with equal total points (36) to the 2019 World Champion American Shaun Torrente.

The title of "World Champion" was given to Shaun Torrente instead of Jonas Anderson on count back of podium results.

[10] On 17th January 2022, the city of Hyderabad signed a letter of intent with the FIA, making them a potential new E-Prix for the 2022-2023 Formula E season.

Motorcycle motorsports world championship MotoGP is also decided to make its debut in the country at the Buddh International Circuit, which hosted three Formula One Grand Prix's in the past as discussions have already been held between the Indian Motorsports Federation and the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM), for the Grand Prix of Bharat MotoGP in 2023.

It is expected that India being the largest market for two-wheeler vehicles in the world, can hence be an attraction for International Motorcycle racing in the country and can gain a lot of public response and attention.
