Player's is giving Patrick the next two races before deciding on weather to retain his services. The rumour is that he could be replaced by Paul Tracy.
Quote:
Player's has decided to wait a couple more races before deciding whether or not to sign Carpentier for next season.
"Patrick missed three races earlier this season with a wrist injury. This delayed our evaluation" explained Mr. Bob Bexon, president of Imperial Tobacco in an interview to the Journal de Montreal. "This is not a vote of non confidence towards Patrick. He is having a good season, possibly his best to date, we only need more time to complete our decision." said Mr. Bexon. "We want to see Patrick's results in the next two races in Mid-Ohio and Elkhart Lake before deciding if he (Patrick) is our man to lead us to the CART championship in the next two years at the latest."
