German CART race cancelled.

No doubt those were the terms that TG wanted so that he could purchase the track. It's obvious that he will cos he said he wasn't.

The track went bankrupt and couldn't afford to stage the Cart race anymore. It doesn't have anything to do with TG or the IRL. Cart is already looking for another European venue to stage a Cart race. It probably won't be until next year though.

CART should go to Spa-Franchorchamps, Brands Hatch or Donington - now -that- would be interesting.

According to today's Autosport "Champ cars would have returned to Brands Hatch after an absence of 24 years had an ambitious plan by CART succeeded. Sources in Britain and America revealed that series boss Chris Pook looked at replacing the now cancelled EuroSpeedway lausitz race with an event at the former home of the British Grand Prix, which ran a Champ Car race in 1978. A lack of an international track licence was one stumbling block to the plan."

Given that track seems to be cursed - with the death of Alboreto and Zanardi's horrendous accident - I'm glad it's off the calendar.

Don't forget the marshal who got hit - and killed - during a touring car race...
