Prominent racing driver Karun Chandhok said he would like to race in the World Endurance Championship (WEC) this year.

I am testing for a couple of companies in Europe. Will see how things work out,” said Chandhok at the launch of Nissan’s PlayStation GT Academy here on Tuesday.The 30-year-old said he would also like to take part in the first ever Formula E competition this year. “Let’s see. I am in touch with two-three teams,” he said
Meanwhile, Chandhok said the Nissan PlayStation GT Academy, which would select six racing enthusiasts to represent the country as real race drivers at the International Race Camp in UK, might change the scenario in motor sports.
