Jehan Daruvala a step closer to realising F1 dream

The Hindu  

India’s motorsport community has waited long for its next top-flight driver. The 21-year-old, who was identified by the Sahara Force India team for its young driver programme, got a boost this year when he was signed by F1 giant Red Bull Racing for its prestigious junior driver programme. So I am just going to focus on getting the best result on track and hopefully realise my eventual dream of getting to F1.” Validation Rayomand Banajee, his coach and mentor from the karting days, added, “Being part of Red Bull brings additional pressure but Jehan is unfazed by external pressures. It was crucial to get this deal especially after the Force India door closed and this is an even better validation of his credentials to be picked by a race-winning F1 team.” Daruvala spent two and half months at home in Mumbai before leaving for the U.K. in May in one of the repatriation flights to be prepared for the eventuality of the season starting in Europe. It has helped and I was able to do a test with an F3 car in Silverstone just to get back in the groove.” Commenting on the new procedures pertaining to physical distancing and team bubbles, Daruvala said, “I think it won’t be difficult to deal with those things.
