If a Sprint Cup driver ever needed a win it was Ryan Newman. Now out of his driving assignment with Stewart-Hass Racing at the end of this season, the Indiana native had his resume sent out to all of the teams.because Stewart-Hass Racing told him he wouldn’t be coming back in 2014.
It was Newman’s first Brickyard 400 win, and he pulled off that big coup in front of pretty much a hometown crowd. He told his crew as he was coming down to the finish line,”Thanks for a great weekend,” which also included his winning the pole a day earlier.
He went on,” I was more emotional when I won the pole. It was also the best race car I’ve every had in my life in racing!” His team made the right decision about only taking on two new tires on the last pit stop. Ryan told SPEED’s Bob Dillner,”The Indy win does wonders for me in trying to get a new ride next year.”

When it comes to Formula 1 racing, we’ve always been puzzled at the way that series does business, especially under the strict control of Bernie Eccelstone. We have always had the feeling that the whole series is bizarre. We’re not impressed but instead we’re puzzled at the way it conducts business and the costs associated with the series from top to bottom. All it does is to increase the costs of doing business.
Recently, we get caught up on our reading. After perusing through a late winter of 2012 issue Road and Track Magazine where the Grand Prix of USA at the Circuit of America in Austin,Texas was featured, we thought we heard it all, but the piece was even more enlightening. According to earlier reports over the years, Ferrari was spending a grand total of $500 million a year on F1 and other motorsports programs – such an enormous sum just to standout as the world’s best performance automobile.
