Will he make it?

Narain Karthikeyan's tryst with F1 always seems to be a so-near-yet-so-far affair. His test races with the two Js few months back raised so many hopes only to see them come crashing down. And now this call from Minardi for a test race this week-end. God, make something of this. I desperately want to see an Indian in that elite group of racers. But this news item doesn't augur well for our poor Narain!

Somehow we Indians have some sort of jinx when it comes to F1. After much fan-fare and drum-beating, Naidu returned from the Italian GP a totally different, sheepish individual who just had a painful realization. Buddy, it takes much more than idle boasting to host a F1 GP.
