Narain Karthikeyan gears up for F1 Japan Grand Prix

India's first Formula One (F1) driver Narain Karthikeyan said that he was preparing for the F1 race to be held in Japan later this year. Formula 1 Japan Grand Prix is scheduled to be held from September 25-27. Interacting with mediapersons on the sidelines of a quiz event in Coimbatore, Karthikeyan spoke about his plans for the upcoming tournament. In 2011, the 34-year-old Chennai-born driver replaced HRT regular Vitantonio Liuzzi for his country's inaugural grand prix and finished 17th and ahead of team mate Daniel Ricciardo at the Buddh International Circuit.
