I see Ron Dennis is at Indy this weekend. Hoping to do a deal with Nascar to supply a std ECU if they decide to dump carbs and go for injection.
Him being there must have stirred his previous driver somewhat as Montoya duly stuck his Gnassis Chevy on pole for the Brickyard 400!

I still miss Montoya in F1, O wonder if he would have fitted in any better now?

Only if he'd cured his Mcdonalds addiction.

I think the introduction of traction control (legitimately wink) did for JPM in F1. Had the cars been less sanitised he would have a stronger legacy IMO.

Had he had traction control with his mental state then would've been in F1 a bit longer.


And this is coming from a JPM fan!

JPM was awesome in Indycars, some of the best racing I've ever seen.

Indeed, there are a lot of F1 drivers about at the mo who look like they could do with a good meal.

Webber, Kubica, Alonso, Button, Sutil, Glock, Trulli, Hokey-Kokey, Massa, Liuzzi could all do with a good pie.
