So, I met a reject...

Post by tommykl »

Those of you who have been on the chatroom or are friends with me on Facebook have probably already seen this, but yesterday, the one and only Karun Chandhok gave a talk on campus at Oxford Brookes yesterday.

He talked about various things, such as the relationship between a driver and his engineer, his opinion on sportscars, Formula E and Formula One, DRS, the 2017 regulations and the magic/boringness of Le Mans. He's also an all-around great guy :D

Always seemed like a cool guy whenever I heard him on BBC Radio 5 Live's F1 coverage.

Dear lord above we have some young-ins on here! Get off my lawn with that crazy music! :D :D

All joking aside well done. I wish former F1 drivers would pop around here. And as been said Karun seemed to be very level-headed.

Jeez that's so 2012! ;)

Saw him back then when he did a talk whilst I was at Coventry uni. If someone's bored they can try and find the post I made at the time!

Good to hear he's still a fun guy, I remember him being pretty cool with us.
