Just hours before the 2006 ‘FW28′ car is unveiled, it was finally announced that the 29-year-old would be the team’s fourth driver, distinct from Alex Wurz’s role as the ‘Friday’ and reserve nominee for grands prix. (Source: F1 Central)

Finally, after more than 4 months of gossips, which initially included a seat in Midland F1, then a seat in Williams, then a seat in Aguri and finally as many expected a fourth driver in Williams. I believe this is the right decision for Narain, since he will be test driving a resonably good car with a crossworth engine and can show everyone what he is capable of in a good car by putting up some nice timings similar to the ones he had done in the two test runs he had done with williams earlier.

That is awesome news for us. Its a pity that most people in India dont realise that its the “package” that matters, not just the driver.
