Daruvala, who is aiming to become the third Indian to race in Formula 1 after Narain Karthikeyan and Karun Chandhok, knows the association with Red Bull brings added pressure but he is ready for the challenge.

"Red bull approached me at the end of last year and it is a big honour to be associated with them. Yes, there is added pressure but I have come to a stage where I don't let it get the better of me," an ecstatic Daruvala told PTI.

The Indian finished an impressive third in the Formula 3 Championship last season, missing out on the second spot by just one point.
