Racing Pilot Podcast

We're almost into double figures and on this 9th episode of the MotorMouth Podcast, Tim and Harry are joined by former Formula One, Formula E and current motorsport commentator and all round top bloke, Mr Karun Chandhok.From the comfort of his very lovely lounge, surrounded by an excellent selection of biscuits and tea, we chatted about his journey from India to England, his route to the top of the sport, what he thinks about F1 and the impending 2021 rule changes. We find out the best F1 car he's ever driven, the answer might suprise you. We find out he's rubbish at DIY and even tested him on his knowledge of himself....spoiler alert, he failed!Karun's career is a remarkable story, hailing from India before moving to the UK as a young driver with no karting experience to mix with the big boys in GP2. A long career followed as he became the 2nd ever Indian Formula One driver when he joined Hispania Racing and 1st Indian to race in Formula E with Mahindra. In 2019 Karun can be found in the Paddock commentating for Sky Sports F1.
