EXTRA.(Briefs)
BACK TO WORK
Tony Cotman, the Champ Car executive vice president and race director who quit his job recently (Competition, Jan. 28), has landed at the Indy Racing League. Cotman's hiring fills a leadership void under Brian Barnhart, left by the promotion of John Lewis to vice president of league development. Lewis had been particularly involved with officiating in the Indy Pro Series, which Cotman will oversee. Cotman's presence should ease Barnhart's load.
MORE EXPOSURE
Dale Earnhardt Jr. is the subject of a new ESPN2 TV series titled Dale Jr.-Shifting Gears. The five-part series, which began on Feb. 8, focuses on his switch from Dale Earnhardt Inc. to Hendrick Motorsports for this season. The second and third installments will air Feb. 15 and Feb. 16, with the final two during the week of the July 27 Brickyard 400.
PIPE DREAM?
FIA president Max Mosley revealed more details about the Formula One "budget cap'' proposed recently (Competition, Jan. 28). Mosley said F1 teams should fund a team of 30 auditors who would enforce the cap, starting in 2009. But can the FIA really expose spending that teams try to conceal?
"The experience with McLaren [during the Ferrari spy scandal] taught us that if you can deploy the resources and you have sufficient expertise, you can find almost anything, [so] the chance of someone doing work we could not trace is very small.''
