I don't know why you are saying that playa del is "Gone"
Fernandez's cars and equipment may end up in someone else's hands and make the grid, that's a reasonably big team to just disappear. |

they didn't say or do anything between last year's indy and this year's indy, yet they showed up with 2 cars.
There is no official "list" for next year yet. |

I actually ran into someone that works on the Roth car here at college right after the season ended. I only got to speak to him briefly, but if I remember correctly he said that they were planning on running Roth at the ovals and another driver possibly on the road courses.

Despite the rumors, there's no real indication Dreyer & Reinbold is going away from the IRL.
There was a rumor in today's Indianapolis Star about Larry Cahill trying to put together a package for Milka Duno to run. Hemelgarn will be around if he finds money.....that's the way it's always been with him. |

I'm wondering who the five or six are that Barnhart is referring to in Curt's Q&A in the Indy Star this morning...
Milka's $$$ is obviously the fuel that would allow Larry Cahil to field an entry.... Too bad that she isn't as talented as others who could be racing in this series.... Not a slap at her, but of the 3 potential women drivers that could be in the IRL next season, IMO, Milka's in third place when it comes to driving talent.. |

Agreed on Milka, Tim. But D&R is still a factor and apparently is working with Sarah Fisher and her people to put together a package. Fernandez' cars -- or team -- is/are going to wind up somewhere. There MAY be interest from IPS teams. Just sounds like they're playing it honest for now until things happen rather than play the Mark C. game of "we hear that Formula XK29 eighth-place 2006 finisher Oswald Stumpledinck from Nairobi has backing from a diamond mine in South Africa that will sponsor him with Coyne next year."

Oswald Stumpledinck was the Latvian Formula Trabant Champion 3 years running! I think he would be Great in Open Wheel if just given the chance! With all the funding he has from Diamonds R' Us, he will have terrific funding sources and possibly be part of a 5 car Super Team.
Oswald Stumpledinck is a Legend! I hear Ferd Berferd is in line for the rumored second seat... |
