Me too. Unlike most of the V8 super car drivers, Marcos would be terrific in Indycars. Is there some sort of stepping stone between Nascar and Indy or are the two mutually exclusive?

Interestingly Will Power used to call into our newsagency at Stones Corner occasionally and talk to my wife Lyn. He was a mate of Ash Lowe who lived next to us. Ash was a top Formula Ford driver whose career foundered due to lack of funds. Will went on to bigger and better things. Lyn always said what a nice well-mannered young guy Will was, and she gets a buzz when she reads of his Indycar successes.
