Earlier in the week, Dale Coyne announced that they have plans to make an announcement. The team, who was the only other team to win a race besides Target Chip Ganassi Racing and Team Penske, alluded to a forthcoming “alliance.” As most vague press releases do, it has aroused a multitude of speculation. Everyone and there brother seems to have some type of idea of what Monday’s announcement will be. After look at a variety of different facts, I think I might have an answer. Is it possible that Coyne could form an alliance Several months ago, when the “Dixon to de Ferran” rumors were spreading like wildfire, Justin Wilson was rumored as a possible candidate for the number nine seat. After those rumors were rebuked, the Wilson rumors quieted down. The most recent concept that has contributed to the Wilson and Ganassi marriage is the impending Rolex 24. Wilson, a proven road ringer, has been entered in Ganassi’s BMW/Riley alongside Scott Dixon, Memo Rojas, and Marino Franchitti. All of the other drivers who will race for Ganassi are full time drivers, spread across different American racing circuits. While none of these facts can be confirmed, there have been clues. At this time tomorrow, we will know what the team’s 2010 plans are.
