Now here is an interview that will without doubt cause some conflict among fans. It’s an interview by Speed of Road Racing World with Dave Despain. In this interview Despain discusses NASCAR, the Car of Tomorrow, Formula One, Lewis Hamilton, Dale Earnhardt Jr, Michael Schumacher, Nicky Hayden and more. Talk about covering the bases.

In this interview the future of Formula One racing in America is considered. Effectively it is compared to Pele entering the U.S. soccer arena. Nicky Hayden is taken down a notch, though he is the greatest American driver. NASCAR is questioned for the changes being made and the decisions that are supposed to expand the sport to new fans, possibly at the cost of old fans. Of course the question on the CoT come up as well.

This is a great comprehensive interview. You’ll agree with parts, and be very upset with others. If you are into auto racing, you will want to read this. It’s worth the time.
