Default Ford Disses ChampCar - 12-14-2006 , 11:20 PM









From AutoWeek: " "If I had wanted to back an international series," says
Ford Racing director Dan Davis, "it wouldn't have been Champ Car."

"The remainder of 2007 is familiar, with several exceptions: Monterrey,
Milwaukee (yes, Champ Car's last oval) and Montreal are gone, though the
Montreal race will be replaced by a July 1 event at nearby Mont-Tremblant.

A race at Zhuhai, China, is scheduled for May 20, and there are two races in
Europe that could still join the mid-season schedule. That would put eight
of Champ Car's 17 races outside of the United States, which is drawing mixed
reactions. "If I had wanted to back an international series," says Ford
Racing director Dan Davis, "it wouldn't have been Champ Car."
