Your excellent Liz, or Australian coverage of CART is pathetic, or probably both. You watch the race, put these results together and the race for me is still 11 hours away!
Great effort |

PRESS RELEASE
Long Beach, California - Team Mrs. Fields Pies Penske Babe had a really successful outing at Long Beach, as all three of our pilots came home in fine style. [In fact, if the Race Commissioner hadn't said only two cars out of three can score if they all finish, we'd be first!]All praise to Helio, whose new training regimen of being chased around the piste by hordes of adoring females has obviously perfected his fence-climbing skills. (The Team will happily pay the fine and adds a rude gesture to Chris Kneifel - party pooper!) Gil of course was his usual calm and collected self, and earned another podium in defence of his Championship by consummate driving and good pit strategy. But the hero of the day was Bruno, who swarmed from 28th and Last to 8th (before being swarmed by Nicolas and settling for 9th - this time.) After the race he confessed that Helio promised to take him back to the Tiki Room at Disneyland if he had a good race, an Mr. Ganassi threatened to kick his butt from here to eternity if he didn't. We expect great things of him as the season goes on, and Nick had better watch his mirrors! All the boys will be taken out for an evening of karioke and new hats before leaving for our next venue. WELL DONE THE TEAM! Pedro "El Guapo" Morales Press Officer "We ate all the pies!" ============ P.S. And the Race Commissioner did all of the above with the added handicap of a power failure fifteen minutes before the race started, and four trips (2 round trips) up and down sixteen flights of stairs to find a television that was working! She has also filed Canly against her cousin who upon being contacted by phone to help out with the play by play said "Oh it was boring so I turned it off." |

team dangerous in association with stella international racing press release
band aid team dangerous is pleased to announce they have shot up the rankings to a stunning 10th in the table after a miraculous race by team dangerous star helio castroneves. nicolas minassian also did very well, and has been rewarded with a pint of guinness and a big ice cream sundae. team dangerous driver christian fittipaldi was in the doghouse for agreeing to drive that monstrosity, but was quickly released when it was discovered his retirement was down to dodgy workmanship. aesthetic consultant alex tagliani was seen after the race about to beat two kinds of (naughty word) out of paul tracy. team boss bella supplied the baseball bat, and was seen giving alex hints on where to hit paul so it'd hurt the most. he wishes to announce his grief at taking out a row of traffic cones, and says it's a terrible shame, but it wasn't his fault. the cars were blessed before the race by stella international racing honorary driver fernando alonso, and bella swears this is why they did so well. nicolas and helio were pretty cheesed off to hear this, and raised their hands in order to be recognised as the drivers. nicolas uttered something about bella only fancied him, and bella clipped him round the ear and said she only had eyes for alex...oops. alexandre was last seen running away in a northerly direction, with a hanky tied on a stick containing all his worldly belongings. don't worry - he'll be back. we have his daft hat collection and his favourite shades. bella team boss team dangerous in association with stella international racing |

team dangerous in association with stella international racing
team boss bella wished to announce the safe return of aesthetic consultant (and resident headgear expert) alex tagliani. we were right. he wouldn't last long without his favourite shades. we also wish to make it clear that christian fittipaldi's place at team dangerous is not in jeapordy. we all know it's the car that keeps on exploding, and we all understand it's hard for him, what with that little toad in the other newman haas car doing so well. he has our full support. helio says hi, and if you don't support us, he'll send his sister round. bella team boss team dangerous in association with stella international racing |

Team Howards Way Press Release.
I think we've seen that, from the first race to this race there has been a marked improvement. Hard work is still the only real guarantee of success, and even then it's no guarantee. Nicolas managed to avoid contact with his pal Bruno and came home ahead of his fellow rookie, giving us some much needed points to back up Dario. Alex has been a little disappointing so far and we expect more from Dario, but after our pretty poor start this is a good foundation to build upon for the season. It's pretty clear who has the upper hand in the races so far, but in this series things can change very quickly. Having said that we need to get some good, solid results in soon before we lose touch with the frontrunners. Obviously things may need to be changed but at the moment we're happy with the progress that's being made. With a bit of graft, and a bit of character which I have no doubt all our drivers have we'll be up among the leaders soon. I think. Howard Wilkinson. Press officer |

TAM
Press Release: TEAM AGRESSION MAXIMISATION
The combined efforts of two great drivers has TAM 7th in the Championship after two rounds. The Long Beach race was a minor disaster for the team as Team Principal Allan Moffat was late to the track, arriving on lap 20 after doing the babe watch thing with Pammy down on the beach (there is a beach right?) to be told that his eyetalian stallion Mikey 'toe cutter' Andretti had gone from the standings on lap one. At the time of writing no one concerned with the team has any idea what happened to Mikey. Puppeteer Paul did a great job ending the day in a valent fourth place. Surrounded by Brazilians with attitude. Paul to the teams eyes was the only driver to knowingly and intentionally overtake anyone else for the entire race. TAM noticed that this meant they were the only team left awake in the pits at the end of the day. As for Helio jumping around like a fool, hugging every bloke in sight, and generally bringing the sport into disrepute, enjoy it while you can. The ovals and destiny await!! |

Que?
One quick question Ma'am? Team Skidmarks appear to have disappeared from the overall standings above. I know we didn't score anything in the last race, but we don't deserve this, surely??
Respectfully yours, William J Clinton. Last edited by MichaelC; 17 Apr 2001 at 17:39. |

Press Release from Team Champ Cars UK
Paul Tracy will again be driving for our team, providing he brings back the Champ Car he took down to Hollywood. When he told us he was taking the car for a spin, we didn't realise he meant donoughts in Hollywood. Gil is up for it but just in case, portaloos have been installed in the pitlane although no excessive sppeding to the cubicles will be allowed, other he may find himself sitting out a penalty. Good luck to the boys in Texas. |
