Description

Kumar Ram Narain Karthikeyan (born 14 January 1977) is a racing driver who was the first Formula One driver from India. He has previously competed in A1GP, and the Le Mans Series. He has won multiple races in A1GP, British F3, World series by Nissan, AutoGP, Formula Asia, British Formula Ford & Opel series in his illustrious single seater career. He won British Formula Ford Winter Series in 1994 & Formula Asia Championship in 1996. He also finished fourth overall in Championship Standings in British F3 in 2000 & World Nissan series in 2003. He made his Formula One debut in 2005 with the Jordan team, and was a Williams F1 test driver in 2006 and 2007. Like several other former F1 drivers, Karthikeyan moved to stock car racing and drove the #60 Safe Auto Insurance Company Toyota Tundra for Wyler Racing in the 2010 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series. In 2011 he returned to F1 with the HRT team, continued with the team in 2012 and was expected to drive for them in the 2013 season as well. However, HRT was not included in the FIA's 2013 entry list, and thus Karthikeyan was left without a drive. From 2014-2018, Karthikeyan raced in Japanese Super Formula series. In 2019 he ended his single seater career by joining SuperGT series in Japan.

The Government of India awarded him the fourth highest civilian honour of Padma Shri in 2010.
