Williams F1 driver Alex Wurz announced his retirement from immediate effect leaving a seat open in Williams F1. The team decided to pick Kazuki (Kaz) Nakajima, their reserve driver to replace Wurz for the final round in Brazil. Although the Sir Frank Williams has said that this is not an evaluation exercise for 2008, Narain seems to have lost a good opportunity. We certainly think that Narain’s hopes of driving for Williams in 08 are fading.

oops, looks like the DBA for UD is in trouble
Get well soon UD..

[...] With Kazuki Nakajima picked to replace the retired Alexander Wurz, yet another door might be closing for Narain Karthikeyan. Why? Because Spyker has Adrian Sutil signed up for the long term and he is a very good driver. So good that other teams are trying to poach him. It would be unwise for Mallya to let him go. The second driver (who would be the primary driver in my opinion) needs to have a lot of technical skill, specially if Mallya wants to invest a lot of money in R&D. Narain might fit the role, but so will a host of other drivers. [...]
[...] Fernando “Whiner” Alonso are fighting for the title, the end should be good. Although Kazuki Nakajima laid claim to the Williams race seat, it might be a good move for India, particularly Karun Chandok. Nakajima finished 5th this year in [...]
[...] also the possibility that Narain might have staked his claim on the second race seat, vacated by Alex Wurz at the end of last season, but the team decided to give Kaz Nakajima the seat [...]
