Chandhouk

I'm just watching qualifying for the Bahrain F1 race, and I'm pretty impressed with Karun Chandhouk. His first laps EVER in his HRT car were in this qualifying session. He went out and ran a 2:21 compared to a typical fastest time of 1:55. In only his second lap he ran a 2:08 which was as fast as any time that his team-mate Bruno Senna did the previous day. He went on to only be one second slower than Senna, despite having a whole day's-worth less experience. I think that is pretty damn impressive.

Look for Chandhouk to be the surprise of 2010...
