Michael Andretti: Danica's exit could help IndyCar | www.thatsracin.com


"Yeah, we lost Danica, but I'm not sure that's going to be negative. I think she brought a lot of good stuff, but she brought a lot of other things that really took away from the rest of our series. And I don't think that's healthy. And I think NASCAR's going to find that."


"It became all about her," Andretti said. "Even our racing was secondary. I mean, to talk about her finishing 12th in the field, it was taking away from our real stars that we have that really were not getting the billing they should get."


Now for a good ole LOL at Indy Racing according to the same article:

"Milwaukee once was a cornerstone of the IndyCar schedule, hosting a race on the weekend immediately after the Indianapolis 500. But the event - and the track itself, which dates to 1903 - have lost their luster in recent years."


"Andretti hopes to draw at least 30,000 fans"
