Randy Bernard Fired by Indycar

So you finally have some excitement in the series, interest from outside manufacturers, some good racing, and an American champion. Let's fire the head honcho and let the greed of Chip, Rodger, Michael, and Tony G steer it back to the circus show open wheel racing became after the split.

It was long overdue. To put somone in his place who had never seen an Indy type race before was silly. He should have stayed in the bull ring. In fact, that's where he is this weekend.

Yeah I read an article that George sold his share of his team to buy Indy, that would suck. His own mother fired him, LOL.

The minute anyone tells you your job is "safe for now" is the minute you should be looking around for packing boxes.

You gotta wonder if he supportive of Brian Barnhart. If so, that would have sealed his fate but they couldn't fire him the moment Brian left.
Some awful stuff has happened under Randy's watch. Las Vegas death of Weldon, the gosh awful decision last year to restart in the rain that cause a major pile up, Texas Motor Speedway starting position by lottery, inconsistency in driver punishments, track surfaces not being anywhere close to the quality needed to race...

Tony George is a waste of sperm and an idiot to boot.
