Hello Mr.cmm,

If you think force india is a failure than I'm starting to doubt your knowledge about F1...If u do see since the last 2 years Force India has been the only team which defines consistency in improving and did u forget that the team and the drivers of Force India were in the midst of points in 2009. So please don't judge people by what u think...look in to the facts too....

P.S: It took Ferrari 21 years to win another WDC(World Driver's Championship) before Schumi won it in 2000.

So don't call somebody a failure just for the heck of saying it.

It's not all about showing patriotism buddy. This the sport with involves business 7 entertainment together. You can not attract sponsors then u can surely pack ur bags end of the season. The drivers are choosen on basis of talent & the money he can get along.

I hope you know the difference between 1 to 3 secs, that is the gap between 1st car & 20th car on the grid. The viewer ship in India is growing but not as big as racing countries like Italy, Spain, Brazil and Germany. You get a driver of these countries then u would attract sponsors who inturn will get money that is required to keep ur self alive. This is very expensive sport as well.

Next time u do understand what goes behinde a sport then u comment buddy. :)

Campos Meta Team having financial problems even before the F1 race begins. So they decided to sell the stake to a Spanish Businessman and he changed its name to Hispanic Racing.

So what else without proper preparation and testing this Indian will be on the backside of the race from start to finish.

He just considered for the race only because TATA is giving Hiospanic racing huge money as sponsorship. Otherwise a person only win 2 GP2 races in last three years cannot get anywhere near F1 racing circuit.

Anyway Goodluck my fellow India.

Get use the full advantage you have

Congrats and good luck Karun, this will be a real boost to F1 in India.

It wld be great to have an indian driver when F1 comes to India. Its just too bad that the track is built in Delhi.. what racing tradition does Delhi have? Name one F1 driver from Delhi? I can name two from TN
