 Hamilton To Return To '500" Again With Vision Racing Davey Hamilton will again join Vision Racing to compete in the Indianapolis 500. Hamilton will drive the No. 22 The Computer is Personal Again/HP Honda-powered Dallara. Last year, he returned to Indianapolis after a six-year hiatus and finished ninth. In 49 IndyCar Series starts, Hamilton has 13 top-5 and 23 top-10 finishes. He has twice been the runner-up in the IndyCar Series points championship. In seven appearances at Indianapolis, Hamilton has a career-best start of eighth (1997 and '98) and a best finish of fourth in 1998. Hamilton will team up with Ed Carpenter (No. 20) and A.J. Foyt (No. 2) again. "The speed and determination that Ed and A.J. have shown on the ovals this season, combined with the return of Davey, has Vision Racing well prepared to enjoy the team's most successful campaign at Indianapolis," team co-owner Tony George said. "This will be the fourth straight year that we have expanded our operation for the Month of May and I am excited for the opportunities that our growth will provide us." ***

Hamilton is great choice! I was very impressed with Davey Hamilton's effort last year. Everybody loves the guy and everybody knows the man is a fantastic racer. Vision racing has really came along here in the past few years. Scheckter had them in a very good position last year until my man Sam cut him off on the main straight and damaged his front wing. The real surprise on that team though is AJ Foyt IV. He is starting to emerge as an indy car driver. Yeah, he has had lots of time but he coming along well. I will watch his progress this month with much interest.
