I prefer to think the considerable investment from external interests is a good thing. I also think the fact Walker was struggling to field two cars and the fact that we now have two committed, well-funded cars on the grid is a huge positive. Also, the fact that Derrick Walker maintains a strong role within the team is a huge positive - it would be a concern if he was being totally lost to Champ Car. I just think the positives in this situation far outweigh any negatives. Besides, the Walker Racing name still technically exists, and if you believe rumours may be looking at trying to field a separate car for Haberfeld. And I think Timo Glock will be a superb addition to the series [/end transparent attempt to make this post seem relevant to the topic  ]

Fair enough, I probably am being a bit too negative about all this - Derrick Walker is still involved, and we have an exciting new combination of team owners with a long-term plan, who've brought a driver in from a key market, alongside one the better established drivers, giving Derrick a chance to be involved with a competitive car again, and mostly concentrate on the aspecrts he enjoys rather than having to count the cents (although Scottish people tend to do that on instinct anyway...)

It's nice to see Glock and DHL on board. At last count we've got drivers from Germany, France, Sweden and the UK, with Holland and Catalonia possible to come as well, so good European coverage ought to be a formality. Other than the UK and Portugal, each European country has more chance of one of its drivers winning this series than the other one, so the basis for a good following on this side of the Pond is in place.
