In **Micro Max**, Rudrapratap Singh Shekhawat controlled the early stages, taking pole and winning both heats before finishing second in the Pre Final after a five-second penalty. He responded in the Final to reclaim the lead and take victory ahead of Zidaan Arshaan Anees and Aarav Sureka, who was dropped to third after a three-second false start penalty.

  
The **Mini Max** category saw a more unpredictable Final. Jishnu Seralathan moved to the front in the Pre Final, but Shiv Neel ultimately claimed victory in the Final. Raghav Krishna finished second, while Seralathan completed the podium after a three-second false start penalty. Multiple penalties and incidents throughout the weekend reshaped the order across the category.

  
In **Junior Max**, Rehan Khan Rasheed delivered the strongest overall weekend. After qualifying second, he took a heat victory before winning the Pre Final and Final. Rishik Rohit Reddy finished second in the Final, while Hamza Balasinorwala completed the podium after receiving a five-second time penalty that dropped him from the top step.

  
The **Senior Max** category produced the biggest shake-up of the weekend. Aahil Mecklai and Krish Gupta shared the early wins across qualifying and the heats, with Gupta also taking the Pre Final. The Final, however, belonged to Eshanth Vengatesan, who converted the opportunity into his first-place finish ahead of Arjun Chheda and Rohaan Madesh.

  
Across all four categories, Round 3 highlighted the depth of the RMC India field, with early pace not always translating into Final victory and penalties playing a significant role in shaping the final results.
