    I'm not sure that's the car you want to start your F1 career in though. Narain will still race at his home GP so at least he has that.

    So if Red Bull want to replace Webber at the end of the season, they would most likely pick one of their Torro Rosso drivers to take his seat, correct?

    True. MS, Alonso, and even Senna started in a low budget team.

    +1. Fans noticed when some rookie Spanish kid qualified his Minardi 17th and 18th throughout the season. The bottom isn't a bad place to be providing the speed is there.

    It doesn't really matter which team you start with what matters is who you are paired with and how you perform against him.
    Luizi is a good known standard. He and Speed were about the same talentwise. When Vettel stepped in and spanked everyone took notice.
    Narain being noticeably slower is the kiss of death for his F1 career.

    Too bad, I liked Narain when he was at Jordan, I thought he did a half decent job.

    +1

    Seemed like a "pretty good chap"! :)

    IIRC, he also bought a shed load of $ with him - Tata? [and other Indian co's?]

    Looking fwd to Danny -v- Tony. As noted, Tony is something of a known quantity - If Danny dusts him off a few times, we'll begin to hear clamors for Ferrari to hire him ;)

    Cheers,
    Ian
