    Chandhock

    Just felt like it was time this gentleman had his own thread. Having achieved a last minute call up to F1, with no testing and no mileage he has been doing very well. Out qualifying his more fancied team mate last time out and doing well here in china too.

    All other opinions are wrong....

    So far, so good. His crash in the opening race was a real low point, but other than that he's done well compared to the much higher estimated Senna, and by no means disgraced himself, also giving Hispania their first finish.

    performing better than i thought. good for him.

    On a related subject, I think by the end of the year that hRT car will be the best of the 3 new teams. Yeah its slow, but it is fundamentally well built and I think updates will increase performance
    you can't argue with results.

    ROFL have you not read the last few press releases about the car. Its said to be less high tech than an F3 car in places!

    Well, I respect all opinions Truefan but I think you're on a hiding to nothing with this one.

    Personally, I think they will either fold or need to re-engineer the whole car back to basics. The only option there is would be to partner with a top team as FI did but who is the question?

    I have been pleasantly suprised by Hispania (Not as far off the pace as I thought) and Chandhok in particular.
    I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

    He's driving well in a lousy car, and as an added bonus is blatantly ignoring the Chinese Twitter ban, so good on him
