Jehan earns rare chance to test with McLaren

At present, Jehan Daruvala is India's strongest hope to take that rare path. In his third year at Formula 2, a rung below F1, Jehan has been a consistent performer this season and currently sits third in the drivers' standings. A famed Formula One team has certainly taken notice of that. In a massive boost for Jehan and India, the 23-year-old will take part in a test with McLaren at Silverstone in England this week.
