Can I firstly apologise for taking so long to catch up with the standings. We are a third of the way through the league and in fantasy lineup terms it has been utter chaos. Stanton Barret is out and has been replaced by Jacques Lazier and Richard Antinucci. At this point I must clarify that Lazier will be racing on ovals and Antinucci is in for Watkins Glen, there is no attempt on 3G's part to enter both drivers in the promotional two seater. On saying that, I really love the idea and I must give the good chaps at 3G a call when I have finished posting this.
Vitor Meira's day at Indy involved a giant pit lane conflagration and then a rather shocking accident where he rode the wall backwards (answers to the name 'lucky' as the old joke goes) and ended up in hospital sidelined for the immediate future. His seat at Milwaukee was taken by Paul Tracy who parted company with AJ Foyt after one race on account of the car being less effective than the stint Stevie Wonder had as Travis Pastrana's co-driver recently on the Olympus Rally. AJ Foyt IV climbed into the ABC car in Texas and the result was equally as good or bad depending how you look at it.
So Ben Harris has jumped to the top of the table precisely one third of the way through the year, mainly thanks to the astute pick up of Helio Castroneves as soon as he became available. The Werner family are dominating the Top 10 and have assumed the rights to be known as the 'first family of fantasy motor sport' which no doubt will disgruntle the many members of the Harbey household who are involved in this league.
I do need to give a shout out to Jeff Ianucci who is participating under the name of his excellent blog www.mynameisirl.com and I wholeheartedly suggest that you give it a read. His tenure in the top 10 like Ryan Hunter Reay's was brief, although one feels that Jeff has more chance of making an impact in our little league than RHR has in the championship.
Finally if you look down through the list you will see that our two Star Mazda drivers, Conor Daly and Peter Dempsey are locked in a epic battle for mid-table respectability, they are currently separated by a single point.
