In news that nearly all surprised, Matt Kenseth and Roush Fenway announced a cross racing. Matt Kenseth told the team before last weekend, but no announcement was made at that time. Immediately after the news was released, Roush rushed to announce that Ricky Stenhouse Jr. rose through the ranks of the Sprint Cup 2013th Matt Kenseth has hardly said anything, even when bombarded with questions from the media.
A whispered that his contract for 2013 is in force and will be announced at a later date. Speculation is that it moves to Joe Gibbs Racing, but if it is like a fourth car remains to be seen. The speculation had before he is after 11 Denny Hamlin contract this year, but the son of buzz in the press rumors of impending re-sign Denny.
Of course, Gibbs is not the only team to look for that to perhaps find a new driver. If Kenseth prefers to be out of a Chevy was not discussed, at least not what I have seen, but the pilot has not one, to promote Ford, at least not the players, Carl Edwards was doing well.
Anyway, I'm sure that Matt is the message to announce your way.
Two new developments have emerged in the last week may affect the way you see the race. NASCAR is the restructuring of its leadership position in broadcasting. The article is full of praise for supporting the men, the NASCAR media, but it seems like a good initiative. The idea, as I see it is to promote the NASCAR, in trade, which is what used to NASCAR. This means that you do not see the ads for NBA teams during a NASCAR race. Good news in my book.
In addition, the Daytona International Speedway to the Council of Daytona Beach, FL permit applied to improve the circuit, ie areas in which fans are common. Much of this is to improve the front-stretch grandstands, suites and boxes. Areas of the fans in the stadium are updated and added more interactive areas in the design. In short, good for the fans.
NASCAR will continue its "Drive for Diversity" program, and 17 new trainees have been appointed to work with NASCAR in the next 10 weeks, in a paid internship in its entirety. Although NASCAR seems to be a sport where only a few remain non-Caucasians are involved, we have more women who have the sport through the tube, media, teams and the headquarters of the equipment. We see more and more non-US competitors. In fact, Nelson Piquet won in Sonoma last weekend in the Nationwide Series race. All this is very good for our sport.
Lastly, the teams are in Kentucky this weekend. This is the second year on the track, and we race through the night! Tonight, Nationwide teams on the track, and Saturday evening we will see the Sprint Cup cars. Kyle Busch won last year, and he wants to back it up with another victory. He was fastest in practice here first, but Dale Earnhardt Jr. in second. It was not a great track for him last year when he was in the 30th terminated. Last week was not a good week for Jr. looks to bounce back hard and some of its momentum from his win in Michigan. Kevin Harvick has not yet won this season and is sixth in the championship. It also seeks something to gain momentum. He finished 16th in last yearThe leader is Matt. He says it will be easier to concentrate, driving job this week, now that the news is public, its owner has been notified, and Roush has the option of the damage that had to be prevented through the promotion of Ricky. Matt grabbed a sixth place last year, so the driver can not be prepared to win, but after the first practice, he and his team a difficult task ahead of them because they were only 19th
So, who can win? Frankly, I think Kyle Busch has a very strong probability of less than two for two tomorrow night. I did not mention Tony Stewart, Ryan Newman and even today, but both were in the top five in the last year, it could also be a factor. Ryan was the fastest 14 in the first exercise.
I wish all those who wonder why we could not have heard apologies from the front and the middle of NASCAR this week. I was stuck without internet of any kind, not even by my phone. It's a scary thing to not have access. I promise I will for some time, since we are on the golf course for the summer, and I have great signal here.
I will not watch the second exercise, but certainly much control as possible on my mobile phone or BlackBerry playbook. Meanwhile, let the names of their beaks, black horses, and I know what you think about the upcoming changes.
