Are sportsmen not Indian?

I read this deccan herald article. It was really shameful. Narain Karthikeyan cannot have the tricolor logo on his helmet, when he is riding a formula 1 car. New flag code it seems!

In the same country, we have an italian ( a person who refused to become an indian citizen for some 8 to 10 years) as a head for the oldest indian political party.
And the railways minister happily disrespects the national anthem.

In what way Narain Karthikeyan, Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, Saurav Ganguly, Sania Mirza, Anju George, Malleswari damage the indian flags honour by sporting it on their gear?

You know, sometime 2 weeks back, I was watching this Narain Karthikeyan driving a jordan car. And it was so heartening to see him wear a tricolor helmet.

It is really disappointing. This new flag code from a very patriotic(????) union government :-(
