By now, Y'all know that the news has finally
confirmed the obvious, that HULIO' is leaving Indy Cars to become a fulltime
Weathertech SportsCar Championship racer aboard El Capitano's factory Acura
Prototype team for 2018.
While Roger Penske will field at least four
entries for the Month of May, with Helio Castroneves returning for both the
road course and Oval events for Team Penske.
Now I have absolutely ZERO Clue if the
unthinkable will happen, but let's ponder the realm of possibilities, shall we?
Currently, at least publicly, Castroneves
co-driver for the Honda Works Acura DPi (Daytona Prototype International)
hasn't been announced.
And now Bloody JENSE', currently Hobbsnobbing
at Suzuka, has been widely quoted in the News that he misses racing, and wishes
to return to the cockpit in 2018, albeit not sure aboard what. Although the
IMSA Prototypes category looks enticing...
and he's apparently still got some links with
the Japanese Auto Maker, who arranged for his outing at the Suzuka 1000km race
in a Tintop recently, and Hmm? Tars' an open Acura DPi seat at Penske...
As it would be awesome if Jenson Button went
Sports Car racing Stateside, and eventually made a "One-off"
appearance at Circuit de la Sarthe.
As driving here would allow him to continue
his dalliances with his current girlfriend in California, Playboy model, and
the January 2015 Playboy Playmate of the month's Brittney Ward.
Although I'm not sure who's Ego's bigger?
Castroneves or Button's? And if they could get on with each other?
Then again,
Jenson's used to working with another Prima donna named Lewis Hamilton...
