Racer turned commentator feels homegrown driver crucial to sustain interest
The 23-year-old Jehan Daruvala, who is currently in his third season in Formula 2, will be driving McLaren MCL35 on June 21 and 22 at Silverstone in the United Kingdom.
Maini started from P3 on the grid on prime tyres and held on to his position for several laps while Arthur Leclerc was right behind him putting pressure on the softer tyres.
Jehan Daruvala is aiming to become the third racer from India to race in Formula 1 after Narain Karthikeyan and Karun Chandhok.
