Montoya, His Transition From Formula One To Nascar

Juan Pablo Montoya, the formula of a competitor and former champion of the Indianapolis 500 is not satisfied with his success in motor sport category, but is now trying to join the world of NASCAR. Montoya made his first test as stock car driver on Monday at Talladega Super Speedway 18-in ARCA car for Chip Ganassi Racing, which won the 2000 Indy 500 in his first attempt. Ganassi, Montoya wants to earn miles as possible this season, also said he wants to compete in ARCA, Busch and Nextel Cup races at the end of the season. The Colombian knows there are high expectations on him, but said that in the long run. `` This is a long term contract, since it will take time, "said Montoya, who had raced for McLaren. I think many of you are expecting me to go out and win my first race. I do not think that will happen.''Montoya said. Montoya is not the first driver who sought the move to NASCAR, as Christian Fittipaldi, Scott Pruett, Max Papis and Jimmy Vasser, more recently, Paul Tracy, all without success, but the Colombian has plans to change the history of any time. Ganassi said the difference is that this is not the effort of some other cuore''lo mezzo''di open-wheel drivers who could not make a successful transition to NASCAR. `` I'm 100 percent committed to this, and this is the only thing I do, and we're going to have to do this work.''Montoya said. Montoya will replace Casey Mears in the No. 42 Dodge next season, trade in high-tech vehicles of F1 for the less elegant, more blue-collar models. Former Formula One driver said that a machine is a machine, no matter what the specifications are: `` It has a steering wheel, wheels, brakes,''he said. Juan Pablo Montoya is ready to compete with the big names in NASCAR, and I hope this is what the driver was expected, as he had separated from her career mode in Formula One nonprofit.
