I guess that it would have been different if they were in the Car of Yesterday, the COT is simply killing Montoya and his teams chances. From a top 5 in Atlanta, he went to be a regular in low 20's, and even if he will improve in Sunday, he will not win this one.
If every race is going to be on COT next year, and Ganassi don't improve, he should eval if being a midfielder in NASCAR is better than being a midfielder in F1.

Well, some poeple here thought that Montoya wouldn't win today (including myself). Starting 32nd was way too much to bet for him, but Juan showed these NASCAR boys how to turn right. I read comments about how Montoya might never win a Cup race, how he needed a guy like Boris Said to teach him how to drive like Mc Murray, or how he didn't know more than a guy like GT star Ron Fellows (who's this guy?), but Juan showed today that even if he's not in the top car, as long as NASCAR goes to road courses, they are visiting planet Montoya.

I am very happy that JPM won and I hope that he stays and improves in NASCAR. I am not a huge fan of the series, but I have great respect to it. It's very hard, with many champions and race winners, with many cars, which are competitive, with a lot of oivertaking and, what I like, it is really, really tough. Rookies don't come, making miracles there...

Good job from Juan.
He proved the skepticals wrong again.
I was laughing at the announcer when he said that JPM hadn't learned how to save fuel,.........what a moron.
He proved that you can win from deep within the field.
Also kudos to Gordon with his 7th place; my prediction of a charging train towards the front came true.
The skepticals can just be that,.... skeptical. When they are confronted with an exceptional driver, they don't even see it, they can only critisize...pathetic.
ps. I predict a roadcouse sweep from Juan this year, let's bring on the glen!!

Many of those at the front were counting on other drivers running out of fuel or on a similar strategy so I don't think it detracts from Juan's drive at all otherwise everyone would have done it.
I wouldn't expect him to repeat the win on an oval this year though.

after that YouTube channel with tons of old rallying videos was 'stopped', now its time for one rallycross YouTube channel to have the same end. https://youtube.com/@rallygreat2660?feature=shared...
