What? I knew he was going to Nascar, but this?
McLaren agree to release Montoya
Juan Pablo Montoya has been released by McLaren with immediate effect following his decision to quit for Nascar at the end of the season.
The Colombian will be replaced by test driver Pedro de la Rosa for the rest of the present campaign.
“I know it will be a tough transition but I’m excited about the chance to move into Nascar,” said Montoya.
We knew he wasn’t coming back to McLaren (a mutual no-love-lost between-them situation), and the Nascar deal was announced days ago, but I though he’d race out the season rather than leave after a decidedly poor showing last week.
Does this mean I’ll start watching Nascar? Probably not.
