I think everyone saw it coming – JPM leaving F1. But I did not know it would happen so easily and that it would happen this year itself.
So he is going to be in NASCAR. He likes the bumping, the passing, the rough driving. He could not cope with the F1 discipline and the smarts needed in racing F1.
Maybe NASCAR is his true home. Maybe he will succeed there.
Now, McLaren needs to find a partner for Alonso for next year. Who will it be?

“He could not cope with the F1 discipline and the smarts needed in racing F1” really? I don’t think so. If something he would not have coped with, it could be idiosyncrasy of F1-ever changing rules every year!
@samir: I think so … all other drivers have been able to manage the changes ok. And there have not been too many changes that affect the driving … yes, strategy of the team, but not driving of an individual driver. JPM was just not cut out for F1…
heh heh heh heh is he for real ? I mean NASCAR ??
