Any chance they'd change from Joest after 2 wins finally? I wouldn't be surprised if it was a 2 year deal so it could expire this fall but they would have to renew if Joest was interested.

I found it interesting that when interviewed right after Mazda's third win in a row a very emotional Doonen credited Multimatic and crew and drivers, but did not mention Joest. He was very caught up in the moment so maybe there was nothing to it.
