Karun is placed 16th. But look at the times..thats competitive

[Dhruv]

The top 20 are separated by less than a second.  Wow.  Different teams as well.....

[jaydeep]

Yes good performance from Karun.

[vijay-krishnan]

WOW....great performance indeed...he's within 7 tenths of a second from the quickest man and is in 16th....competitive indeed and great to be within a second of those guys....GO INDIA...i know it....karun can take us places....he did less laps than those guys as well since his was a free test...only around half the laps that guys ahead of him did...AWESOME performance....we should just pray that Karun gets the sponsorship he deserves to do the full series this year....Thanks a lot for the times kallu

[Karun Chandhok]

hi guys,

the world series test was only an experience thing of 4 runs of 5 laps each so didn't get a lot of running. plus we only used one set of tyres instead of 2 for everyone else.

the circuit kept getting quicker, and when i finished my quota we were in P5 which is not too bad.

Will keep you posted !!

[jaydeep]

Thanks Karun for update ... Great to hear from u after a longtime and importantly after winning Formula V6 Asia Championship ... U r doing great job on the track ... We all r hoping for lucky break for u in next year's World Series.

Jaydeep.

Thanks for the update karun ..all the best for securing a full season seat !!!
we will be cheering for you mate !! 

[vijay-krishnan]

Great to hear from you Karun....Best of Luck for the following season....let the good times roll...kallu, which site did u find the world series times??

[kallu]

hey vijay, i got the results from another forum i go to. I am not too sure which website they were actually posted.

[Dhruv]

You can find the results on the Renault World Series website.  Here is a link to the article and the pdf with the results is at the bottom.

Hi everybody,
  So any new updates on Karun??? I'm very keen to know the championship he's gonna race for the coming season. Its already december  . Lots of GP2 & WSR3.5 tests are going around. Couldn't see Karun's name anywhere. May be he is busy with finding sponsors.

  May be we can hear directly from the champion himself. Give us a good news soon... Karun..

[kallu]

i havent heard any news aswell, last i heard was he was going to test in  champcar atlantic. But i dont think he tested yet.
