Swiss blitz

We’ve talked racing before.

The OTHER motor racing championship rumbles on and Team Sui (Switzerland) has taken an impressive lead. The chief reason for this is lead Swiss driver, Neel Jani. His website reveals Neel’s Mum is Swiss and his Dad Indian. Perhaps Vijay Mallya will approach Jani for his Force India F1 team, as he ticks both the desi-link and decent driver boxes.

Meanwhile, the US and Pakistan sit in the bottom 4. With America’s poor showing in Formula 1 and the World Rally Championship, the evidence mounts that Americans can only drive in circles. And they’re not too hot at that either.

    Nice find Rohan Rohin,

    Last year, when Jani came into the limelight, I was researching him and the only info I had was the wiki, which suffice to say was not much.

    And as far as Neel Jani for Force India F1 goes, I doubt that he will be picked up this year, given the fact that the F1 drivers market is too crowded right now and Mallya has a bunch of drivers fighting for the one vacant seat, next year might be a different story.

    Thanks for the correction, I was searching for more comments on this post and I figured the misspelling.

    BTW, have you been checking NJ’s website regularly? I ask because the mention of India will get picked up everywhere. Just wondering if this is a recent move.
