Light drizzles delayed the Junior Max races by some time but once the drivers were there, the race was worth a watch. While Jehan Daruvala started off in the first place in the 20 laps final in the Junior Max category, he couldn´ hold on to his lead position for long as Arjun Maini overtook him after 6 laps. Unperturbed by his defeat in the pre–finals, the passion and commitment of the 12 year old led him to victory as he took the chequered flag. Following him was Jehan Daruvala and third place was taken by Dhruv Mohite. Team Maini Racing was awarded the Team trophy once again.

An elated Arjun Maini, winner of Junior Max said, "It felt good to win the opening round of the championship. I started fourth for the finals and I was confident that I had the pace. My kart gave me as much support as I needed to win and also set the fastest lap. I had a good start and moved into the second quickly and then after around 6 laps I overtook to take the lead and held on to the position."
