Things are not looking good for Salo. How's Firman going to squeeze in. CART's can't let these kind of guys get away.

Please say Salo will have a drive. He's too good to lose. He's long been a fav of mine, and last year i rated him and Darren Manning as my two favourite Champecar drivers - with Darren gone, i'm hoping we won't lose Salo as well.

Line-up update:
Latest news from Long Beach is that Forsythe will stay as a two car team with Tracy and Lavin as drivers, and Carpentier's contract will be transferred over to Walker Racing ?! But, after I posted the above tidbit - Robin Miller (again) had to come up with a different prognosis: Rahal or Conquest. I'm not buying RM's kaka this time - he was wrong with the "PG buys Patrick assets for Rocketsport and RuSport" and I was right all along that it was KK who bought it for Emmo. That I will not forget, so now I'm not biting his latest spew either. Just like Muzza was at Long Beach yesterday, so was a friend of mine - and we definitely hear a Fosythe/Walker deal for Patrick Carpentier. But, for the heck of it, I stuck Carps in the other two possible spots. And here's how the line-up looks now: 1. FORSYTHE - Paul Tracy 2. FORSYTHE - Rodolfo Lavin 3. NEWMAN/HAAS - Sebastien Bourdais 4. NEWMAN/HAAS - Bruno Junqueira 5. HERDEZ - Mario Dominguez 6. HERDEZ - Ryan Hunter-Reay 7. COYNE - Michael Keohane 8. COYNE - Jaime Melo 9. KALKHOVEN - Jimmy Vasser 10. KALKHOVEN - Roberto Gonzalez 11. GENTILOZZI - Alex Tagliani 12. GENTILOZZI - Nelson Philippe 13. WALKER - Patrick Carpentier or Ralph Firman ? 14. RAHAL - Michael Jourdain 15. FERNANDEZ - Arian Fernandez 16. BACHELART - Mario Haberfeld 17. FITTIPALDI - Mika Salo 18. RUSSO - AJ Allmendinger Possible additions: 19. WALKER - Jonathan Macri or Michael Valiante ? 20. RAHAL - Justin Wilson or Oriol Servia or Patrick Carpentier ? 21. FERNANDEZ - Oriol Servia ? 22. FITTIPALDI - Gaston Mazzacane ? 23. BACHELART - Townsend Bell ? btw, updated picturesque version = http://www.planet.nl/~f1/cart2k4.htm zerO |

Info from friend of mine:
Thomas Enge said in Czech TV(during first F1 race) that he is going to drive in full CART season, and won't compete in Czech Rally Championship. Of course, it's very,very unnoficial. |

Rahal will not run a second car in 2004. Bobby was categorically clear about this during the Champ Car Launch in Long Beach.
He also discarded the possibility of adding a second car later in the season unless "something absolutely extraordinary happens". |

Also, zerO,
Ryan Hunter-Reay has not yet been confirmed as Herdez second driver. There is a very strong possibility of such happening, but the seat is not yet his. Last edited by Muzza; 10 Mar 2004 at 21:02. |

Hey Salvatore, so how should I look at this, heh ? Are you siding with Robin Miller's kaka ? Or are you saying that PG and RHR are lying ? I'm a little baffled here. :confused: zerO |

Hello, zerO,
1.) I have the deepest respect for Robin Miller 2.) I don't even know what Miller said about Ryan Hunter-Reay. 3.) I did not say that anyone is lying. Where did you get that? 4.) Undoubtedly Ryan Hunter-Reay is very close to sign with Herdez Competition - and I for one would be delighted with that, as I appreciate the professionalism with which Keith Higgings works. However, this has not yet happened, as simple as that. Regards, Muzza |
