ESPN's Dr. Jerry Punch interviews Sam Hornish and Helio Castroneves

Upon receiving the ESPN press release touting their newest racing partner, the ChampCar World Series, TSO decided to make a few phone calls around the industry to gauge reaction and find a few more details. Since we cover the IndyCar Series almost exclusively, our contacts are generally on that side of the fence - thus you would expect this will have an IRL tilted viewpoint.

That said, we did speak to people from teams, the series, and a few people that have worked in the racing business in general (meaning they aren't tied to the IRL in particular).

While we certainly didn't speak to everyone, we were able to get some interesting viewpoints.

Why Subscribe to TrackSide Online?

Focused:
We don't cover every series out there - we focus on the IndyCar Series, and have done so since the IRL's inception in 1996. We have multiple staff members at every IRL event - open tests, the Firestone Indy Lights, every day of action at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, even the event at Twin Ring Motegi. We're in the garages and at the press conferences finding out tomorrow's news today. Maybe that's why car owners, drivers, IRL management, and members of the radio and television broadcast teams all subscribe to TSO.

More Than News:
Not only do we cover the news, but we try to make you feel like you're at the event yourself. TSO has photographers at each event taking photos of the action on the track, in the garages, and behind the scenes.
