Lloyd Closing In On Deal

Alex Lloyd, who has been driving for Target Chip Ganassi Racing the last couple seasons, left the Championship winning organization last June in hopes of a 2010 full season ride. With rumors swirling, it appears the 2007 Indy Lights Champ could soon find himself back behind the wheel.

The 24 year old British driver says that its "Better than 50/50" that he'll be back in a car for 2009. Although he wouldn't mention the team, it looks like he could be replacing Oriol Servia in the #06 Newman Haas Lanigan Dallara. It's doubtful that Lloyd will be piloting the car in Chicagoland, but both Motegi and Miami are good possibilities, with the relationship extending into 2010.

Although nothing is official, Alex says that the deal could be done any time now.

Good for Alex. He is somebody who actually wants to be here and deserves a shot. The pink car will stand out too.

And, he can't be any worse then that Doornbos goof was. He was all talk.
