Just seen where Marco is going to drive 24 LeMans. I find this a little surprising considering he hasn't exactly shown much talent, speed, or technical ability. Good for him though, one of the world's quality events. He will have Neil Jani as one of his co-drivers...no THERE is a real fast dude. Has been fast in anything he has touched.
Marco was praised when he ran the Acura LMP2 machine in 2008. He was the fastest driver on the team when he drove for AGR's ALMS program and turned alot of heads that weren't expecting him to do well.Quote:

Mike is like many parents, trying to help, but I truly think his development has been hindered by racing for AGR.
Graham Rahal never ran for his dad's teams, and it shows why Graham in my mind is a better talent at this point in his career than Marco is. THIS 24 hour effort is a really good place for Marco to taste a racing culture not defined by Daddy's influence.
