Is Qualifying A Dead End?
It used to be back in the day that to have healthy competition in racing that everybody had to work hard and race hard to get into each and every race. But then as the popularity of the sport increased, the money followed too, especially the sponsor money. Now sponsors rule the roost and scream the loudest when they can’t show their product on the screen due to a driver having a bad weekend.
Franchitti Out: Open Wheel Drivers Not Proving Well
I have never been a fan of open wheel drivers coming over to NASCAR, they are two different mindsets and two different driving styles. Needless to say, maybe Chip Ganassi if finally figuring this out. He is officially shutting down the #40 team and reducing his stable to two teams. It will be interesting to see if Dario can land somewhere else. It is easy to say that he has done nothing but struggle at the Cup level, so who really would want to pick him up? Also, has he burnt too many bridges to go back to IRL at this point?
