ANYWAY but we need a F1 driver sure.Malaysia, India, Thailand, Japan had or have F1 driver we need to.I thinki A1 GP could be a good start for motorsport.We should ask Partex group, Bashundhara , national government , Prime minister to help developing motorsport in Bangladesh.We should organize Drift contest , Drag race , rally in the country side, race between Dhaka and Chittagong.

Abdul, i second that...............

we need one for sure.Because Bangladesh must be more than a country where there are floods and poor people.We must get a better image worldwide.Not only F1 driver but also a real Bangladeshi car, tuning company using Bangladeshi made parts,Design company in automobile like Dilip Chhabria Design.........
I hope we will have it in the near future.

good point Sakin........I don't think the rich ppl of bd cares abt the motorsport in BD.

anyways guys........i think we are moving a bit :offtopic: in here now......so lets just stick to the topic and open a new thread if u want to talk abt developing motorsport in BD.........thank u.
