Remember the ALMS program will initially be in P2, but the Acura factory team will graduate to P1, and compete at Le Mans.

Now that WILL be an attractive drive.

Well, according to Autosport, Franchitti's agent met with several Champcar team principals in Denver and apparently admitted that Dario is considering a return there.

The article even suggests Dario would possibly be able to compete in the season ending races, once the IRL season is closed out, although to me that seems highly improbable.

deejay has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Over on the F1 forum they're talking about Marco going to champcar next season. Any truth to that rumour?

If so that leaves only Kanaan and Danica confirmed at AGR next year. Two car team?

I doubt Marco would go to CC when (a) he is driving for his fathers team (b) he has been impressive in the IRL this year.

If he is looking to move to F1 a GP2 or CC ride could occur but I dont think anything like that has been mentioned yet.

AGR has made the following very clear thus far:

1. Marco and Tony Kanaan are under multi-year contracts with AGR. Danica makes three, and they will run in the IRL next year....that was stated when they announced that they signed Danica to her contract.

2. They desire to run four cars in the IRL next season. Whether or not that actually happens remains to be seen...we also do not know who that 4th driver would be...if they do field a fourth entry....

3. Herta has publicly stated his desire to be considered for the AGR Acura LMP2 program, and has shared that with AGR....He cannot confirm it until the formal announcement, but has told reporters that if they have listened to him in recent weeks, that should give them an idea of what he'll be doing next season....read between the lines.

Thus, Marco going to Champ Car is about as likely as AGR hiring me to be their fourth driver with multi-million dollar sponsorship from Ten-Tenths.com
