Indian racer Jehan Daruvala shot into limelight by winning the first round of the German National Karting Championships in Ampfing in May this year.

Apart from winning that competition, the 15-year-old Dadar-resident also bettered reigning Formula One champion Sebastian Vettel's timing during kart testing.

Little did he know that Vettel, who couldn't compete in the championship due to a rib injured, would come back and inquire about Daruvala's timing from his manager.
