well Karthik has not made a name for himself yet, apart from being the sole Indian ever to drive an F1 car, i wish he would have achieved the results that his team and India would love to revel in, but, alas! he always had dissapointing results that even his team has excoriated him and relegated him to a position of test driver. For all F1 fans and Indians alike, hope that picture changes.
