When rally legend Azar Anwar was getting married, he had one request to his mother, who was doing the negotiations for the arranged marriage: “The only thing I told my mum was to tell them that we could talk about other things but they should not interfere with my motorsport. Either they join or they leave it alone,” he says.

“Even the marriage date was set between the Coca Cola rally and the next rally,” he says as we break into laughter. “So that I could do both.”
