Narain Karthikeyan Makes Surprise Comeback to Formula 1

Sunday, January 9, 2011

http://simoncellimotogp.blogspot.com/Narain Karthikeyan’s comeback into Formula One has surely astonished many. The fact that he is coming back after a five-season nonappearance from the top form of motorsport is not an easy attainment.

Seen as someone who has umpteen raw talent, the 33-year-old now has another possibility to prove his mettle with the best in the world.

His last spell in F1 with the Jordan Toyota team in 2005 was unassuming but with things having changed in the sport, it could be a different ball game.

However, he has had some good results and also wins in the now-defunct A1 GP World Cup of Motorsport and the Superleague Formula series (for Dutch side PSV Eindhoven). He has been driving in the Nascar World Camping Truck sequence in 2010 and in Le Mans.

With so much racing knowledge, his 2011 season with Hispania, who have complete his signing up, could indeed throw up something interesting. Daily News & Analysis

Karthikeyan said: “I am confident that I still have the pace, the health and the will to succeed in Formula 1.”

Team boss Colin Kolles said: “I am sure his knowledge and speed will be very useful for the team during the season.”

India will also host its first F1 Grand Prix in October, and Karthikeyan says he is honoured to be clever to race on home soil next season.

“I’ve been from beginning to end a lot in my career but to be a part of the first-ever Indian Grand Prix will a special moment for me,” Karthikeyan said.
