Nascar's Newest Drivers
 
Following the news that F1 driver Juan Pablo Montoya will race for Chip Ganassi on the Nascar circuit next year, Danica Patrick is now pondering the move as well from the Indy Racing League.

Quote:

Patrick’s father and manager, T.J. Patrick, touched off a media firestorm earlier this week when he told reporters Danica was exploring crossing over to NASCAR’s Nextel Cup. She squelched those rumors a bit Wednesday when she told various media outlets that while she did have interest in NASCAR’s top series, she would likely remain an open-wheel racer for the near future.

More money and more fame await her for sure driving a cab with the big boys.
Might as well move since you can't even win a race in the IRL.
Here, I've got an idea! You can drive a car in Nascar but Michelle Wie has to be your crew chief.

You are very welcome to JPM, he came to F1 as the next big thing and turned into more of a liability than a regular race winner..., more a whinner in fact, nothing was ever his fault, even when he was having accidents where no one but himself was involved....

I love the move.
Anytime an outsider from another motorsport comes to Nascar and gets owned, it's a great day to be a Nascar fan:up:

Thing is, he showed tons of promise and balls in his transfer from Indy to F1, and he had guts a plenty, but he's never improved, very wild and reckless.


There is a time and place for gutsy moves on people, but you have to be able to make them stick and do it consistantly, which he didn't, the wild brave move usually ended up in the wall, and you don't win races in the wall.....
