The day has come for HRT Formula 1 Team to officially open its doors to the new headquarters at the Caja Mágica in Madrid. The team has been preparing the move since last winter and even decided to skip the most recent Formula One test at Mugello to complete the move to Madrid.

I am glad that he is bringing some sponsor ship otherwise he would never be in F1. The article attacks HRT too much for no reason but it still doesn't explain how come Narain always manages to finish behind his team mate. Whats that saying again ? Bad craftsman blame their tools.
That's putting it nicely. He's routinely mollywhopped by a pensioner.dice782 wrote:imightbewrong wrote:Interesting to see what NK brings to HRT for that seat. And it looks like he won't last the season:

Or more likely you wouldn't do more than 5 laps due to exhaustion... Even without that, good luck being less than 5sec slower than him, as bad as he is for a F1 driver. Ask Sebastien Loeb if you still not sure about that...waynes wrote:i reckon, and i'm being frank, that if i paid 1 million pounds to spend a day in the HRT i could get within a second of Narains times, the guy is a clown.
And De La Rosa is about that much slower than the field in similar cars which makes Karthikeyan sound even worse. But he's there driving and we're not. Lucky bastard.Petroltorque wrote:The problem for Karthikeyan is that he's on average 7/10s a lap slower than De La Rosa. Once you're over half a second slower than your team mate you are an irrelevance as they'll default the setup to the faster driver.
I don't buy into the assumption that Tata are paying €5 million for the Williams transmission. That figure woud make sense only if they're using KERS. In any event I'd be surprised if Karthikeyan was in the seat beyond Canada.
The deficit I'm quoting is the average deficit over the Total race distance covered by each driver. Drawing a conclusion from a single data point is hardly valid.charan0790 wrote:see the monaco free practice times...no further comments
A visit to HRT while in that country sounds pretty interesting though, and the better access I have the better.
