Is Micheal hanging it up at the end of the season or is the USGP moving out of Indy? They said this would be his last race at Indy or he would be the last winner at Indy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I didnt see any of the race except the last lap I was out in the shop building a stand for the big screen TV and forgot it was on (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

The USGP contract with Indy is up this season. They may re-sign, they may not. Bernie Eccelstone has repeatedly made negative comments about how important the US is to F1 (as in, it ain't). There are overtures being made to run the race at Vegas or a track in or near NYC, as well. Just another chapter in the long, ugly history of F1 in the US. Bernie wants a big packet of money from Indy to keep running the race there, and Indy doesn't want to pay that much. Bernie usually gets his way.

Whether or not Mikey retires at the end of the season is also subject to much speculation.
