Narain Karthikeyan Quotations

I feel like I have really done my job today under these severe conditions. Driving was tricky, almost like a gamble. It required a real combination of car-control and self-control. But in the end it worked well.

I don't want Indian youngsters to go through what I experienced, hunting for sponsorships and trying to find my way up. Ten years ago, most people would have laughed at the thought of an Indian making it to Formula 1. But I've changed that and I believe I've paved the way for Indian youngsters. We're a country of a billion people and I'm sure a lot more racing talent can be found here.

At least I established the limits of my EJ15B. Overall the car was good. I did my fastest time of 1.14.906 on my 41st lap. I hope I have another good race in Japan. All drivers love the track there. I have competed in the Japanese 3000 championship and like the place.

I know that the circuit has been quite successful in the past for the team where they scored their first ever Formula One World Championship points in their history.

I hope I will have another good race in Japan.

It has taken some while to resolve what I would be doing for 2006, but having tested for Williams late last year, joining the team was the best option for me.
