You mean the loss of Sam Hornish Jr?
Hornish is a three time champion, an Indy 500 winner.
The IRL has seen the best of Hornish many many times, Hornish has acheived everything possible..
It's now time for him to move on and good luck to him (i believe he's in the Cup race tomorrow)
The IRL now has a young, exciting driver but one who has learnt from mistakes in the past. He hasn't turned up with a big fat cheque like drivers from Champ Car's joke revolving door championship, he's there because of one thing, talent
Few have commented about the recent influx of non americans to NASCAR as well. Jacques Villeneuve, Juan Montoya, Dario Franchitti and Patrick Carpentier
Villeneuve will/has replace Mayfield (US)
Franchitti will replace Stremme (US)
Carpentier has already replaced Riggs (US)
hey, it happens!! Good old Americans like Seb Bourdais, Paul Tracy, Robert Doornbos and Justin Wilson can't all arrive in the IRL at once you know! lol!!!
Not to mention the jokers like Dominguez and the crew
deary me!
