Chennai: Amidst debate over the ‘elitist’ nature of Formula One, and whether it qualifies to be a sport at all, Indian racing star Narain Karthikeyan on Saturday said that F1 is a sport as good as any other and the drivers involved in it work really hard.
“F1 is a sport as good as others...as much as cricket. In fact, it is a dangerous sport too,” Karthikeyan said during an interactive session at the India Today Youth Summit here.
Karthikeyan, the face of motorsport in India, said professionals involved in motorsport put in as much amount of hard work as any other sportsperson in other discipline.
