He might only be 22, but it's likely that the evening of Sunday, December 6, will remain one of the highlights of Jehan Daruvala's racing career. By taking the chequered flag in Bahrain's Sakhir circuit, he became the first Indian to win a race in Formula 2. And while Daruvala prides himself on being the stoic sort, he admits there were a few goosebumps when he stood on top of the podium.

Daruvala didn't really get the chance to soak up that feeling, though.
