Sepang (Malaysia): Indian racer Armaan Ebrahim overcame rain and technical problems to grab a commendable third-place finish in the Super Trofeo Asia Series here on Sunday.

Armaan, spearheading Team FFF Racing, began in the sixth position in the first race after struggling with the balance of the car in qualifying, but he showed his skill and speed once again to climb his way up to the third position. Armaan faced problems when the overhead conditions changed suddenly and he was caught racing on slicks while the rain pelted and made the track slippery.

He had trouble with his radio and missed out on making his pit stop during the stipulated window, earning his teammate a drive through penalty, which pushed the team down to seventh place at the chequered flag.
