Today’s question: Seven-time Formula One World Champion Lewis Hamilton recently shook the motorsports world by announcing he was leaving Mercedes after this season to join Ferrari. I couldn’t believe that the leading race winner of my nearly 40 years covering this sport would leave Chip Ganassi Racing for another team. Now that Dixon has continued with Chip Ganassi’s team, I’d be further shocked if he moved on, and I can’t see it happening. Eric Smith: My pick would be Josef Newgarden leaving Team Penske and joining Chip Ganassi Racing. That’s why for me, Newgarden taking that type of career and joining Team Penske’s main challenger for the Astor Challenge Cup each season would be a massive story. Penske and Ganassi have won every INDYCAR SERIES championship since 2013, including Ganassi winning three of the last four.
