    Default US F1 team?

    http://jalopnik.com/tag/us-formula-1/?id=5159649

    Let's hope this really comes to pass (pun intended). And let's hope they get Scott Speed instead of Danica. Leave her curve-hugging to SI's swimsuit issue....
    Speed

    +1, if she wants to be taken seriously as a driver, she needs to keep her clothes on.

    He is a little old for F1, but I think he could do it. However, he has that lifetime contract with Hendrick so I dunno. I heard that they are thinking of Danica because of the she would bring in.

    Contracts were made to be broken. He can turn both ways (5 wins at Sears Point / Infinion), he has always been somewhat of an outsider to many NASCAR fans, he has shown an interest in expanding his resume by running the Rolex 24, and he would bring more fans and with him than Danica. But hey.. this is a new team, so they likely will be fielding more than one car... sign them both.

    Hopefully some bail-out money will go to one of the sponsors.
