Come on Michael Andretti. You know you'll finally be able to hunt down those Porsches. And what a boost for the series that would be. An Indy and Daytona 24 hour champion in the mix!!! XM sattelite would probably pick up the tab on him themselves. Now that Dario Franchitti is out of NASCAR pleeeeeeease pair him up with Montagny.

Bryan Herta was a good driver but last year he made many mistakes. In the final race at Laguna Seca they kept Tony Kanaan in for the final 3 hours because HErta was so mistake prone. And This year Christian Fittipaldi is just not up to pace. Marco Andretti was much faster than Christian and Herta at Sebring. However I think if Michael Andretti really wanted to go for it he would have Kanaan and Marco in the car. But that would not be good for Tony Kanaan's Indy championship hopes. The line up for petit LeMans should be Tony Kanaan, Montagny and Marco Andretti. On a side note since this is pretty much a Honda team and Montagny was a Honda driver if they could get Montagny I'm sure they could have access to Anthony Davidson and Tacuma Sato. Montagny couldn't outpace either of them at Super Aguri. It’s a about time. Bryan Herta was a good driver but last year he made many mistakes.

I'm very pleased to see Frank behind the wheel. After all he did in his career, he really deserves. This year, he was quite spectacular in Le Mans, nearly as quick as Sarazin, whether dry or wet. We do not have to forget that he nearly discovered the 908 HDI at that moment compared to Steph Sarazin... or the other Peugeot drivers. Very impressive. What a great new!!

Did they get fired? Or just moved to Indy? So what’s with Herta and Fittipaldi, then? Did they get fired? Or just moved to Indy?

Franck is a very fast guy, which he has proven many times in sportscars. I will look forward to see what he can do in the Acura. he would be able to fight the Porsches, eventhough the Acura still have some disadvantages compared to the RS Spyder. Go for them Franck, about time! Great news!
