Aditya Patel, the 2007 Indian Formula Rolon Champion, has joined the Eurasia Motorsport Formula BMW Pacific team for the 2009 championship. Patel tested for the team last week at the Sepang F1 Circuit and posted competitive times demonstrating that he will be competitive at the first round of the championship which will support the Malaysian Grand Prix on March 22-23.
“Aditya was quickly on the pace and he impressed us with his ability to learn fast and convert that into competitive lap times” remarked Mark Goddard of Eurasia. “Patel is a protégé of Narain Karthikeyan and he demonstrated similar speed and application to that we saw in Narain way back in 1995.”
“I am here to win” reported an upbeat Patel. Martin Quick, team manager of Eurasia Motorsport, is happy that Aditya has joined the team. “I am sure he will competitive and we are really looking forward to the season”.
