Don't get me wrong..... The Spike deal is a step in the right direction, but not the greatest thing. I wish that every race was on NBC or CBS, but with open-wheel racing in the crapper as it is, it's not going to happen. I think the deal with Spike will work out for both parties involved. The HDnet part of the deal is intersting as well..... Villeneuve has a shot for a ride with Williams next year in F-1, but it's not too common that someone takes a year off and is able to come back and be competitive..... I honestly believe that Villeneuve is done in F-1.... The Le-Mans race is a single endurance race that Villeneuve said he'd like to win, along with an F-1 championship and CART (ChampCar) Title......
