Motorsport Update from the iSport F1 Pitstop: “The Fastest Indian in the World” is now also the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series’ Most Popular Driver of 2010. In a huge surprise, Karthikeyan, who has run a total of only 9 out of the 25 race calendar, garnered the most votes in a fan poll held on the NASCAR website.
Beating out veterans and fan favourites like Ron Hornaday and 2010 Champion Todd Bodine, Narain’s Most Popular Driver win proves the power of India in any global arena. Driving for Starbeast Motorsports, a team whose mission it is to bridge the businesses of India and the United States through NASCAR racing, Narain has been one of India’s most popular sportsmen ever since his debut as India’s First Formula 1 Driver in 2005.
On receiving the award at the NASCAR end of season Awards Banquet in Miami, Narain said, “Racing in NASCAR has been such a rewarding experience, both personally and professionally. From the other drivers to the fans, everyone has been extremely welcoming and supportive. I really want to thank all the fans, in India, the US and everywhere else who voted for me. I am truly honoured to receive this accolade.”
