KC should be qualifying in the top 5 on the gridKC should be qualifying in the top 5 on the grid
So far Juan Montoya has not finished a single race this season due to spotty reliability from his Toyota-powered Lola. In contrast, Jimmy Vasser has been in contention most every race for victory with the same package. I think that Vasser's exeprience is showing through just a little. He seems to be able to get just a little more out of the package without failures. I think he is better at saving the engine than Montoya is. Vasser admitted during the opening round at Homestead that he was shifting early in an effort to keep the motor together. Montoya has an attack at all costs driving style and I think he will continue to have trouble with failures until he changes his style slightly. The Lola-Toyota is just too fragile yet to take a hyper agressive approach. I hope he can get it together because I think he is a fantastic driver. I wonder how well he would perform in an F1 car knowing that they do not respond well to being super aggressive?
