Thanks to the recent Home Ministry order Narain can't wear his tri-colour helmet anymore - jerks!!

"Their loss" was Narain's reaction - and rightly too.

Sunil Dutt, the home minister is in support of Narain and others but says there's nothing he can do about it.

What Narain has told is absolutely correct. I don't know what this home minister is upto. He could have easily sold that part of helmet to make money. That is actually nice of sunil Dutt that he spoke out what he felt instead of going along with what home minister has done.

A wonderful article in times of India on this particular flag on helmet issue. But what I observed on Narains helmet is that, there is no green colour on it. Can't he continue with it saying that it is just design and not national falg?

This is why Dhorasso and Chopra wont play for India (in football)!!!

[amr090]

well actually they wont play because they cannot. having played for the junior teams of france and england they are ineligible as per fifa rules.

[vkd_1717]

they wouldnt play for those junior teams knowing there is a country trying to bring them in and play them EVERY international ... and i meant to say people like dhorasso ... Iran brought in a half-Iranian half-German to play for Iran as mentioned by Iranian under the football section ... my point is India can never do that with this sort of attitude

The law of having the Idnain flag was scrapped but you cannot have the chakra

Narian 9th because of luck however he did an amazing job to reach 2 secs ahead of his teammate on a wetter track .. well done Narian

[jaydeep]

What heck and who cares becoz of what he achieved this but atleast in one qualifying session (thats also in his first GP) he is ahead of Schumi by 12 secs ...

Tomorrow chances r high that Micheal and Narain will be on same line around 7 or 8th starting line up (in between 13 to 16 numbers on the grid).

Jaydeep.

Narian starts in 12th losing out only 4 positions in the Jordan ... thats an excellent first quali and lets hope he can keep up the pace at the race and stay ahead of his team mate

[Indian]

Hope it rains and Narain can use the conditions....though it doesn't look like raining at the moment. Good luck NK!!!
First GP race coming now.

15th place finish for Narain!! Great job by him in first race. Finished 53 secs ahead of his teammate!!
