It’s Seabass-Mania!
Well.. looks like Bourdais will go to the mid-rate Toro Rosso team pending contract details in 2008, and he will go to such exotic places such as Singapore in F1. Hopefully, Seabass could make a decent career out of it. There’s no Craig Hampson to complain with him though.
Mo Nunn back with Forsythe? Da Matta on his way back?
Apparently, former F1 and IRL owner and former Ganassi engineer Mo Nunn is back with Forsythe Racing in Champ Car as an engineer. He could not get into it while owning cars in the IRL, and he had “retired.” Now he’s with Forsythe and Champ Car, maybe he’ll be happy again.
Also, Cristiano Da Matta is pondering a comeback. It’s only been five years since he won the CART championship. Maybe Da Matta’s playing Deerhunter for a while for some payback. It would be nice to see him back.
Damnica Patrick still thinks Dan Wheldon is a bitch
Look at this quote about Dan Wheldon… Danica thinks she’s so high and mighty here that she can talk shit about Dan Wheldon no matter what (even if the contact between Dan and Franchitti caused a flip that could have been worse than it was):
“Dan just came up and hit Dario and Dario flipped around,” Patrick said. “Dan drives really aggressively out there. He said it himself on pit lane at Milwaukee that he’s tougher. I don’t know if tougher means rougher, because he doesn’t play completely fair out there. I even said that on my radio, ‘Dan better play fair today. I’m serious because he likes to drive up and intimidate you.”
Why would Dapper Dan intentionally take someone out? Hey Danica, go race on cold tires and cause a 17-car accident. Even if I sound like Jim Rome here.
Jeremy Mayfield out after this season
Looks like Jeremy Mayfield is out at Bill Davis after this year, after making 8 out of 21 races so far this season. After Ray Evernham screwin’ the development driver/girlfriend and neglecting the team in early 2006, Mayfield’s career has not been on track. Maybe the truck series is a better idea for him in 2008 as Nextel Cup/Busch Series is STACKED.
