What is Indian in Force India? Except thug mallya owns it he wants all Indians to buy into the hype that it is Indian?
If Force India is Indian then Raj Thackrey is a Bihari.

I know people have reservations about F1 in India. But it still has been and will continue to be the pinnacle of motor sports all over the world. Karun Chandhok has been given a chance to test his skills in simulator, but i think Karun will not find a race seat in 2010, there are far more better drivers in the market than him.

About Narain Karthikeyan, he has been given a fair chance to prove his mettle in F1 with Jordan, but he let those chance fade away. In formula 1 you have to be quick and also at the same time cunning to take advantage of the situation. Only a few 100th of seconds separates the field nowadays. Narain had been the reserve driver for williams racing team, if he would have continued maybe he would have been in news. A1GP is racing but not of the quality of F1, so maybe he was wrong in leaving F1 for A1GP.

As an ardent fan of F1 from my childhood I would love to see an Indian Driver doing well in F1, but for now it seems a very distance possibility......with our best bet in the form of Karun Chandhok.

Unfortunately he is not performing in GP2 races...i dont know why he wants to come to F1...without proving himself in GP2. Drivers like Neel Jani & Bruno senna are examples for climbing up the ladder through success in GP2 & A1GP

its all due to mallya, he wont give driving for any indian, because for him all indians only cab drivers. thats why he put karun on a stimulator, which is more like a video game with steering wheel, electronic lcd monitor, few button are starting and stopping, etc.

Mallya doesnt have to give a chance to KC.. just bcoz.. he is an Indian. Lets understand something very clearly..... we are talking about Millions of dollars here. Nobody can get their emotions of his motherland into his business... If KC has got the talent in him to.. perform at the highest level of 4 wheel racing..??.. then he will definetely be picked.. sooner or later. So dont get too emotional.. the Mallya is not offering him a drive...

Dear Mr. Rathore...

Do you even know what you are speaking about by meaning video game????

That simulator setup is one of a kind state of the art Technology that ppllike u don't and won't understand...So better watch where you are talking...

Let KC prove himself in the Simulator then if he is really up for it Dr. Mallya will be the first one offer him a driver's seat.

Yes..more than giving a chance to indian it should be earning your chance. Chandok executed his GP2 assignment quite well, so we can be hopeful to see an indian driver next season, even if not in force india
