IRL happenings
Ron Hemelgarn has made it official: He will return to the Indy Racing League following a year on the sidelines (AW, Jan. 31). Hemelgarn's Indianapolis-based team won the 2000 series championship with Buddy Lazier. Hemelgarn has bought Dallaras from Morris Nunn's idle team and will run Infiniti Pro Series runner-up Paul Dana and his Ethanol sponsorship in 2005. They will use Toyotas.
Nunn doesn't have the sponsorship to run the full season, so for now he is keeping his two G Force chassis (known as Panoz in 2005) in case he can assemble a program for the Indianapolis 500.
Greg Ray's Access Motorsports is also in financial difficulty. The team has been renamed Greg Ray Racing since Ray is the only partner with money in the program.
Adrian Fernandez remains a co-owner of a two-car IRL team (Kosuke Matsuura and Scott Sharp are the drivers), but the three-time race winner in 2004 doesn't have a program for himself. The only thing on his schedule is a Hendrick Motorsports ride in the Busch Series' inaugural race in Mexico City on March 6 (the day of the IRL's season opener at Homestead).
GP2 getting ready
