strange...

PG said he couldn't make the figures work to transition to the IRL.
He couldn't run two cars in his own series, but can run 3 in the IRL?
And the article on indycar.com yesterday about team pairings rocketsports are not mentioned...



Andretti Green Racing-Dale Coyne Racing; Target Chip Ganassi Racing-KV Racing; Rahal Letterman Racing-Newman/Haas/Lanigan Racing; Vision Racing-Conquest Racing; A.J. Foyt Racing-Pacific Coast Motorsports; Team Penske-Walker Racing; Roth Racing-Team Minardi.

News source should be accurate but there is nothing on Juho Annala's webpages about driving for Rocketsport same goes with Rocketsport so I would wait a little bit to see if this turns out to be true or not.

Not surprised at all when it comes to anything related to Pauly G String.

Only that AR1 gave it any sort of credence in the first place. What the hell was Mark thinking? With Paul making it perfectly clear that he wasn't going to participate and this story coming out from some foreign press, you would think Mark would have wanted to vet this a bit before bothering to publish it even as a rumor.

Mark C is gossip. Always has been, always will be. Hence why I don't subscribe to AR1.
