The finish locked up rookie of the year honours for the former Formula One driver and Indianapolis 500 winner, and secured him 20th-place in the final season standings. More important, it closed out one of the most fulfilling years of the Colombian's life.

There is also a Q&A portion of the article. This was an interesting part:
Quote:
Q: Hardest driver to race?
JPM: Um, I don't know. Most of them are pretty sensible.
Q: Come on, this is our last week together. Tell me who the hardest driver to race was?
JPM: Yeah, I am not going to tell you that. Most of them are pretty sensible.
Q: Which one is not sensible?
JPM: I'm not going to tell you. Next question.

In related news (in an article in which JPM sympathizes with Alonso's plight at McLaren
), JPM expects to win the title within 3 years, a reasonable goal.
Quote:
He justifies his difficulties in NASCAR by saying that he plans to get the title in three years. "I won over all the pilots racing at F1; here, I've been ranked thirty".
