"If I was Kyle, I'd be saying to myself, yeah, those guys all talk the talk, let's see what they do, let's see what the car's like. Let's see what the race shop is like. Fair enough," he told USA Today. Windsor revealed that he has already met with Busch's business team, and is confident his talents would transfer to formula one. "If he wants to jump in our car next year for doing some demonstrations here in the States, he's very welcome to do that," he added. Busch is under contract to his Sprint Cup team Joe Gibbs Racing until the end of 2010. Marco Andretti, the son of 1993 McLaren driver Michael and the grandson of 1978 world champion Mario, has also been linked with USF1, but the team is likely to make its plans for 2010 without an American driver. "It's not because I don't rate him (Andretti), but I don't think he'd be right driver at the right time, or equally that we're the right team," said Windsor.
PaddockTalk Perspective
Two things....
In order for this to stand a chance in hell.... USF1 must make the Formula One grid and be competitive AND Kyle Busch must be looking to jump to Formula One.
We are still waiting for USF1 to hire IndyCar's Danica Patrick.
