Now he's listed as a DCR driver at the Champ Car site:

Maybe Servia and da Matta pointed out how driving for Dale helped them redeem their careers...

According to AR1 it is only for Portland so far.

Probably just a race to race deal. However, given what PT said, would they also release Mario's engineer? Also, presumably, DCR has undeveloped Lolas that would accommodate Mario's setup preferences.

AR1 has a quote from a Mario where he is thanking Telmex and Bridgestone for their support. He must have some personal support from Telmex which makes sense but Bridgestone? Is their a Mexican division of Bridgestone?

More quotes from Mario to confuse the situation ...


Dominguez was shocked when he was notified by e-mail Saturday that Forsythe was firing him.

"And I was shocked A.J. got taken out by RuSPORT," Dominguez said. "I guess with him being the only American in the series, they had to take care of him, and my head had to roll."

Story in The Oregonian (http://www.oregonlive.com/motorsports/oregonian/index.ssf?/base/sports/1150435894228880.xml&coll=7)



He has said he insisted on leaving Forsythe.

"I was in a position where playing No. 2 in the team was not what I wanted to do this early in the championships, so I believe what's best for my career is to go somewhere where I can be a leader," said Dominguez, who is from Mexico City.

Concerning the question of 'Bridgestone Mexico', yes there is, and yes they do provide some support for Mario.

Mario was notified by email about his firing? Is this a common practice? I would think GF would at least have the nuts to tell him over the phone or something.

so i'm confused his 1st statement was that he wasn't fired and he left the team on his own to be a #1 driver with someone else , now he says he was fired by e mail what is it mario :shakehead

Natural reaction to being fired. You go through the stages of grieving such as denial, anger, bargaining, etc. I'm just glad that he is man enough to take the Coyne ride.

Kind of like the internet meltdowns last week?

Its not true.
Russo sucks
DaMatta sucks
Why would Champ Car allow this.
He must be going to Forsythe.
Maybe he was an attitude problem and can't set up his car.
All is okay.
:D
