This, from SpeedTV:

2003 Champ Car champion Paul Tracy has admitted in his monthly Toronto Star column that he is “concerned” with the departure of his race engineer of five years - Todd Malloy has been hired by Carl Russo’s RuSPORT squad.

Tracy revealed that he’ll be working with IRL-bound Patrick Carpentier's 2004 race engineer, until his Forsythe team can recruit a long-term replacement for Malloy.

"Todd Malloy had worked with me for more than five years - through my time at Team Green, Players and here at Forsythe," wrote Tracy. "After a two-week holiday following the Mexico City race, he came back to work and gave notice he was leaving to work for the RuSPORT team."

"The team would like to sign Tony Cicale, who I worked with at Team Green and in 2003," Tracy continued. "We wanted to sign him up this year but because of budget restraints, we didn't have enough money. We'll see what happens before Long Beach."
