droy : Great news. My heart goes out for Narain. That he made it to the top form of motorsport all on his own by sheer talent, hard work and persistence at a time when Indian motorsport was (is!) in its nascent stage with hardly any sponsor willing to back up such a prodigy is in itself a great achievement. In all his interviews, I have always seen a smile on his face. Its a pity that in a country like ours that is obsessed with cricket and Bollywood, a celebrity like Narain could walk down a crowded street in a big metro city totally inconspicuously. Now with age not on his side, I hope his return ho F1 would give us a few pleasant surprises. I only wish he could have got a team worthy of his talent so that we could see an Indian winning a F1 race [angel].

Go, get 'em, Narain !

That's great news for Indian motorsports too! Narain is the Leander Paes of racing. With him back in the driver's seat means a lot to all aspirants. Anyway Force India is running a campaign to find new talent from India. I wish them luck too [:)]
