About Pratik Rakshit
Pratik RakshitConnect with this authorPratik Rakshit writes and talks, mostly about cars, and has been doing so since 2015. After completing his PGD in Journalism from the Asian College Of Journalism in Chennai, he gained experience with both a magazine and digital entities over the next few years and can test cars, the old-school way. He also has a soft spot for no-frills cars, with a fascination for a certain Bavarian brand that built engines for various applications. That said, his idea of a perfect car has a long roof, six cylinders, and four rings. Pratik cheers for Chelsea FC and Lewis Hamilton in his spare time.
