Ocean Racing Technology (ORT) secured a top driver contract for the GP2 Main Series with Indian driver Karun Chandhok joining forces with the Portuguese team, making him the first driver confirmed for the outfit directed by former Formula One driver Tiago Monteiro. Chandhok has two seasons in the series under his belt, which saw him secure several podium finishes and therefore brings great experience with him that will be decisive for the all new team in the GP2 Main Series.
F1 aspirant Karun Chandhok finished a lowly 19th in the feature race of the GP2 Main Series, thus failing to buttress his case for a seat with the Force India Formula One team.
Karun Chandhok came all the way from the rear of the grid only to finish seventh, just outside the points, in the GP2 race on Sunday.
Karun Chandhok drove an amazing race to finish third at the British Grand Prix and secure Ocean Racing Technology's (ORT) first podium finish in the GP2 series in Silverstone on Sunday. The Chennai-born driver, who had finished sixth in the feature race, ended up ahead of series leader Romain Grosjean.
