It's been a few years since India's first Formula One driver Narain Karthikeyan may have steered away from the fastest version of motorsport, but he's still in touch with the goings on nevertheless.

Sheer dominance
Mercedes' Lewis Hamilton's dominant form (top of the drivers standings with 100 pts having won four of the five races this far) has not missed Karthikeyan's eye. "Lewis is an awesome driver. He's on a roll. It may be a bit to early to say this, but I believe this Championship is his.

He's been so dominant. Statements from him claiming he wants to dominate his teammate (Nico Rosberg, currently in second spot with 97 pts), go to show he is very confident of what he can achieve," Karthikeyan told mid-day on the sidelines of a promotional event to strengthen his association with the Tata Group, at the Kari Motor Speedway in Coimbatore on Thursday.
