F1 and NASCAR fans, you heard it here first!

Juan Montoya and Chip Ganassi just held a press confrence in Chicago. Juan will be in Nextel Cup next year full time. He will also run some Busch races. He'll be in the #42 car. Unbelievable!!

[Lug Nutzz]

It's true......
It is going to be interesting based on the fact that they usually bring cross over drivers up through the lower ranks no matter what the experience.

[SCUDERIA-FERRARI]

im betting he sucks, even on the road courses

[Scoob-Dood]

As long as he isn't in F1, I don't care where he lands.

[Dino Scuderia]

I think it's good for NASCAR to finally get more international in it's DNA...with Toyota coming on strong and now this latest news.

However I don't think Juanker has the temperament to deal with this type racing and personalities within it. Will be interesting to watch...and I can see all the underlying soap opera type stories which follow F1 around beginning to appear in this series as NASCAR becomes more diverse.

[Matt Wadlinger]

On speed last night they mentioned that putting Montoya in a car is a marketing plan to get more Latinos into the stands. I don't care what your race is, if you are a racing fan, you're a racing fan, and you're gonna go to the races.

I don't go to golf tournaments just cause a white guy is hitting the ball. I'm baffled if that is even close to the truth.

[Eric Cole]

I didn't like him in F1 and I won't like him in NASCAR. I agree with Brian, it's going to be interesting to see how he deals with the attitudes and personalities in NASCAR.

Now, if Kimi moves to Ferrari... I will have my favorite driver in my favorite car....
........ hmmmm, I'll have to by a new hat !!! LOL

[Zoom Zoom]

Big news but certainly a big yawn for Juan. He didn't do anything in F1, but his abrasive style of driving will be perfect for NA$CAR. They'll probably make him change his name to "JP" and send him for voice lessons to get a southern drawl.

[Lug Nutzz]

With the Car of Tomorrow on the horizon maybe it's perfect timing coming in now.

[Eric Cole]

And the latest news...... on the front page of MSN, Danica Patrick Considering Move to NASCAR !!!!

[Ferrarifreak]

I agree that Juan tends to let people and circumstances get into his head and mess him up. He'll have to get over that fast!! There's a ton of joke I could go with but i'll leave it alone!! I'll let Ricky Bobby in the new movie say it all !!!! hehehehe

[slammd454SS]

well whats this news i hear of Danika Pactrick coming to NASCAR as well? im glad i quit watching after the retirement of Bill Elloitt, cuz its lost my interest altogether now.
