    Great question.

    This deal was about to happen but in the past 24 hours this went from a done deal, to a deal that might be done.

    I think that if the money from both parties does not materialize, they could put Wilson back in a car. That would be the popular and deserving thing to do, but with money being tight, a last minute deal could still change things.

    This one is not over yet.

    Say what you will, but it is now the 20th and the big announcement of the 18th has long past and no word of when if ever it will be made - I smell a problem.

    Doornbos will be a teammate of Graham Rahal, who won the Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg in his IndyCar Series debut last April.
    Notice the lack of mention of Milka? Hmmmmmm...

    Well, I'll say this for what it's worth to you. RD is very good! He reminds me of a young Paul Tracy.

    A team would have been smart to put them both together.

    Tragic, if PT isn't signed on this year in open wheel...

    "Details of the sponsorship will be announced at a later date."

    This is also interesting. I thought all of this was hinging on RD bringing sponsorship money and now he's announced, but the sponsor isn't revealed.

    I'm glad he's coming. It's a shame that it's looking like PT,JW,OS and RHR are without rides. Combine that with Helio's future looking shaky and that's a serious depletion of driving talent. It would be nice to see Robert on the track with these guys.
