Mumbai: Yet again, world will not be seeing Indian Karun Chandhok behind the wheels at Force India young drivers test at Jerez, Spain, from December 1-3.
The team has selected Britain’s Paul di Resta and America’s JR Hildebrand. With this announcement, Karun Chandhok’s hope ends to be a part of Force India.
Chandhok said, “We talked about it and I expressed my ambitions to do something with Force India. But they opted to go with other drivers. That’s their decision but I’m not disappointed.”
Di Resta, 23, competes for Force India’s engine partners Mercedes in the German touring car championship. The Scot has also tested twice for McLaren.
Hildebrand, 21, is the Indy Lights series champion and the Californian will be the first American to test a Formula One car since Scott Speed was at Toro Rosso in 2007.
