Narain Karthikeyan’s prediction of the tough and slow Hungaroring circuit actually helping him came true as he finished a creditable 12th in the Hungarian Formula One Grand Prix today.Narain’s better placing could look exaggerated with six cars failing to finish but that in itself showed the hard work put in by the Jordan team on a punishing circuit. Karthikeyan said he took advantage of the situation at the beginning to gain a few positions and then settled into a consistent rhythm setting consistent lap times.“I had a decent start I think, avoided the mayhem at the first corner and gained a few positions. Then I kept on pushing throughout the race. It was physically the toughest race of my life.”
