Japanese F3 is also a grid of less then 10 cars, still those drivers are on top in the Macau gp, what show their quality

very happy with Vervisch position, maybe he can get pole in 2nd qualy


I think thats maybe more due to the fact that they have the more powerful Toyota engine on their rearends rather than talent.

I was reading today that Kristijan Einar was going to race for Newman Wachs Racing, but had to have $500,000 to get the seat, some sponsor was going to pay $500,000 for that year of racing, so he flew over to New York and signed the contract, but then the sponsor withdrew right before then season started, so that left him without a seat.

Seriously, I can't for the life of me figure why JME left Europe. I guess it had to be money. I hope he gets a second chance.

That happened to a lot of guys. Vickie O' Conner is working her tail off. However there was some things out of her control. The series did not put out a rule book or official schedule till after x-mass. Kind of hard to make a sponsor pitch and be taken seriously without those two things.

a good source told me Vervisch will continue his season in the Atlantic Championship with Genoa Racing (at first it was only a 1 race aperience)

Genoa Racing is very impressed with his speed

I think he can give it a shot to the title :thumbsup:

According to finnish MTV3.fi, Markus Niemelä flipped his car in the first event of Formula Atlantic Mazda Series at Sebring on March 20th. Anyone got a video of it?

With most Atlantics events been part of the ALMS support package along with Star Mazda its almost certainly been filmed. Hopefully Atlantics will show up on SPEED Channel some time later this year like last year.

The new Atlantics website is here BTW:
http://www.atlantic-championship.com/

All thats actually on it is the season schedule & merchandise, the actual news & stuff is on the IMSA site:

Other Atlantics stuff such as photo's, points standings etc... are on the IMSA homepage:
