What's the point in 2 series if they can't even get entries for 1? |

That would actually be good idea to use the old (current) chassis after the new formula is introduced, in the situation of having a healthy grid in the main series. I think it's possible. The economy will return to normal eventually, and that should help. |

Bourdais has given a big hint he won't be in F1 next year and may be heading to the IRL http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/72527 |

Could be, though they might go for Wilson over Bourdais. |

Apparently it has been upgraded and may be trying to Grand-Am date. It could also get an Indycar date. |

I really doubt they will replace the date. I actually expect there to be more cancellations but I'm hopeful there won't be. |

I can see them moving forward the date of Motegi and hoping Homestead wouldn't mind moving forward. I just can't see them cancelling dates because of length between them. If they were bothered about length between races they wouldn't have such a massive off season. |

A bit of wishful thinking on Autosports part... http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/72542 Surfers Paradise interested in replacing Detroit?
