Until Ramji Govindarajan decided to start Ten10 racing, India didn’t have an independent Moto racing team.

Key Takeaway: Sigmund Freud’s theory of sublimation aimed to explain why some people display extraordinary talent by transforming repressed sexual desires into creative or intellectual prowess.
