geen juan voorlopig in NASCAR. toch niet tot na het F1 seizoen. Hij zou misschien zelfs F1 rijden dit jaar

Quote:

Q. (Dan Knutson - National Speed Sport News) Ron, while Juan is on his leave of absence, is he permitted to race in Nascar?

RD: No. He is a contracted McLaren driver and it will stay that way until the end of his contract unless there is some other commercial arrangement between ourselves and the Nascar team or Juan himself.

Q. (Salvatore Zanca - Associated Press) Ron, do you envisage Juan coming back to Formula One?

RD: More than possible.

Q. With what team.

RD: With our team.

Q. Are we talking about this year?

RD: It is possible.

Q. (Andrea Cremonesi - La Gazzetta dello Sport) Don't you allow him to do any tests?

RD: No. There is a conflict of sponsors, advertising campaigns and a whole raft or reasons why that is not a practical proposition.

Dodge wil Montoya nog altijd van zijn mcLarencontract verlossen.

Quote:

Dodge Director of SRT and Motorsports Marketing Mike Accavitti said today that the manufacturer is still trying to free up Juan Pablo Montoya from his contract with the McLaren-Mercedes Formula One team so Montoya can begin driving stock cars. The F1 season ends October 22, and even though McLaren replaced Montoya soon after he announced he would join Chip Ganassi Racing in 2007, Montoya, who will replace Casey Mears in the #42 car, is still prohibited to drive stock cars.(SceneDaily.com)

Je zou zeggen dat dit toch op een nette manier opgelost moeten kunnen worden binnen het DaimlerChrysler concern? Maar nee ego's moeten weer belangrijker zijn. :rolleyes:

tzou nu toch opgelost geraken:

Quote:

McLaren boss Ron Dennis says Juan Pablo Montoya can be freed of his contractual obligations to the Woking team – provided he is willing to forego the remainder of his salary. The Colombian abruptly split with McLaren last month, two days after sensationally announcing that he would be leaving Formula 1 for the American NASCAR series in 2007. Since then his future employers, #42-Chip Ganassi Racing and manufacturer Dodge, have made little secret of their desire for Montoya to begin his stock car apprenticeship as soon as possible.(itv.com/f1)

Toch opgelost:

Montoya ready to test Cup cars? A deal has been struck that will allow Juan Pablo Montoya to begin testing with Chip Ganassi and Felix Sabates' NASCAR operation, possibly as soon as next week, Yahoo! Sports has learned. Montoya has been unable to practice in a stock car due to a contractual issue with his soon-to-be former employer McLaren-Mercedes F1. An agreement releasing Montoya from his contractual obligations to his F1 team is necessary before he can begin testing with Ganassi. That agreement has been reached, according to a source within the Ganassi organization. Details of the agreement have not been disclosed, though an announcement is expected soon. Ganassi/Sabates officials want the former F1 and Indy 500 winner behind the wheel of one of their cars as soon as possible in order to prepare for his entrance into Nextel Cup next season. Tentative plans have Montoya running at least four races and as many as nine before the end of the season, including the Busch Series races at Texas, Phoenix and Homestead-Miami and the Cup finale at Homestead – all markets with large Latino populations. Montoya also might run the ARCA race at Talladega in October, which would give the Colombian experience on a restrictor plate superspeedway.(Yahoo Sports)

Eindelijk. Moet nu wel snel doen om NASCAR te kunnen kijken... 6 Oktober willen ze hem al in een nextel wagen zetten

Quote:

Juan Pablo Montoya will make his stock car racing debut in just over a week's time at Talladega Superspeedway, his team Chip Ganassi Racing announced today.

Montoya will drive the No. 4 Texaco/Havoline Dodge in the ARCA RE/MAX Series on Friday, October 6, in the Food World 250.

Normaal zou hij goed moeten meezitten. het niveau daar is wel een stuk lager als in NASCAR

Bijna pole:

Juan Pablo Montoya was only nine thousandths of a second away from snatching pole position for his maiden race in stock car racing, which will take place this friday in the Food World 250 ARCA RE/MAX at Talladega Superspeedway.

Heb jij het kunnen volgen via beelden? Heb even een radio link geluisterd. Deed het erg goed eerste ronden zelfs leiding maar daarna betrokken bij een crash en had daarna geen zin meer om te luisteren. Maar toch nog opgetrokken tot de 3de plaats :applaus:

Ik denk niet dat ze ARCA hier ergens uitzenden.

Er zijn geruchten dat Hamilton de laatste race zou rijden voor McLaren. Maar dan niet in de plaats van De la Rosa, maar van Raikkonen!
Ik geloof er eerlijk gezegd ni heel veel van, maar ze hebben nog steeds niets bekend gemaakt van rijders in Brazilië en dat is vreemd...
