"AutoRacing1.com caught up with the Montreal race promoter Alan Labrosse regarding recent reports in a Montreal newspaper that his race only attracted 14,000 fans in 2004 and he was short $2 million on his sanction fee payment to Champ Car. "That report was totally inaccurate," said Labrosse in an exclusive AutoRacing1.com interview. We don't know where that reporter got his attendance figures but we stick by those originally announced. Regarding us not paying a $2 million sanctioning fee, that is false as well. We have one small issue to iron out with Champ Car regarding next year and we fully expect that there will be a Champ Car race in Montreal in 2005 and 2006 per the contract. In fact we expect there will be a Champ Car race in Montreal for as long as Champ Car is in business."
Hmmmm
