(I dont believe Max will sit out his home track, let alone Indy where he qualified number one, wayyyyyyyyy to much press to pass up for VegasFuel)
With the huge task of relaunching a business, you need to jump in with both feet. We arent in the countdown chase, so it doesnt make much scense to prolong getting the business on track(pardon the pun).
By putting the time in now, it will position us for a strong 09 season.
Make no doubt about it, NOT driving and not being out there seeing everybody is NOT somthing he will enjoy, but we need to be smart during this time. If everything works out the way we think it will, everything will be fine going into 09.
