I saw after the crash where Hornish thanked his crew for helping him with "this transition". I needed to leave the room.
If I may point out "he looked decent until the crash" pretty much sums up the early years of Tomas Scheckter's IndyCar career.

The question then becomes, will Penske setup a program for Sam or will he have to find his own ride?
