During this past weekend a lot of rumours took place inside gannassi's team. We all know about montoya going to f1, and now jimmy vasser will probably not come back for next season. But this wasn't the biggest thing, michael andretti also said that he's leaving newman-hass, and that he does not want to leave racing without an indy 500 victory. So having in mind that andretti did race with chip after his disastrous f1 incursion, we may see them reunited next year, but hey this is just a rumour.

I would not be surprised to see Andretti in a TCGR car along side Junqueira next year. They would make an excellent veteran and rookie combination.
I also would not be surprised to see Vasser join up at Newman-Haas. |

I've heard that Mikey has 2 'very good' offers for next year. One in CART, & one for supposedly 20 MIL in IRL. He also stated he wants to run INDY, so Gannasi is probably the CART team in the running. 'OL TG sure is spending to get 'Name Recognition' drivers isn't he?

Can he afford $20 mil over two years for a guy who's going to be 42 years old by the time that contract is up?
Or would he be better advised to take Christian if he can get him and let Mikey go to the Idiot Racing League and race at Indy in a soap box car - and get the pants beat off him by - CHRISTIAN? I know what I'd pay to see. |

time that contract is up? -How old is Moreno? Ah 41? Is it just me or are the two oldest farts in Cart also two of the fastest? Also isn't Moreno getting better with age? I guess you could sign Jensen Button, and hold on to him for 20 years... |

Well technically Mikey would be 40 at the end of his 2-yr. contract. He's only 37 now and turns 38 in October.
