Tagliani and Tracy teammates?

Possible return to Forsythe
By DEAN MCNULTY, SUN MEDIA

TORONTO -- A deal that would pair Toronto's Paul Tracy and Montreal's Alex
Tagliani at Forsythe Championship Racing in the Champ Car World Series is in
the works, the Toronto Sun has been told. Tagliani was dumped by
Rocketsports Racing owner Paul Gentilozzi a week ago after the team failed
to renew several sponsorship agreements.

There had been some speculation that Tagliani could end up at HVM Racing or
Walker Racing - both second-tier teams - but the news yesterday about a
possible return to Forsythe was welcomed by the 32-year-old veteran.

"I would like to be with Forsythe," Tagliani was quoted as saying by Speed
TV.

Tagliani had spent three years with the team along with fellow Quebecer
Patrick Carpentier, but was let go after Player's - then a partner in the
team with Forsythe - hired Tracy after the 2002 season.

JUMPING FOR JOY

But yesterday Tagliani was jumping for joy at the prospect of going back to
his old team.

"They always have a hell of a car,"Tagliani said.

"If there's even a slight chance for me to go there, I'll take it and be
grateful for the rest of my life."

Team owner Gerry Forsythe told the Sun at the time of Tracy's hiring that he
favoured keeping Tagliani, but was overruled by Player's who were putting up
the money to pay all three drivers.

The pairing of Tagliani and Tracy would certainly be a volatile one.

The two have squabbled both on and off the track, with the feud reaching an
apex at the 2004 Toronto Molson Indy when both publicly fired off unsavory
remarks about each other.

Tracy had blamed Tagliani for a wreck that cost him a podium finish at
Cleveland the week before Toronto.

There is also an outside possibility that Tagliani could end up at
WalkerRacing - a team that struggles each year just to field a team.

11 CONFIRMED

On another front officials from the Long Beach Grand Prix - Champ Car's
season opener - have expressed concern that there are only 11 confirmed cars
for the race with just three weeks to go before the green flag drops.

"This is still a question on how the teams will align themselves," Long
Beach GP boss Jim Michaelian said. "It's preferable to have that information
by now."

Champ Car director of public relations Steve Shunck said yesterday he is
confident there will be a full grid at Long Beach.

"We will have 18 cars," he said. "Maybe even more."

Nope,....

Marcus Marshall and Tags at Walker,...

Good seeing an Australian in the series, and keeping a French Canadian for
Montreal.
