Sam Hornish Jr. is fighting for much more than a NASCAR Nationwide Series championship over the next two weekends. Hes fighting for the chance to stay in NASCAR.
During the ESPN prerace show for Saturdays Nationwide race at Phoenix International Raceway, former Penske Racing driver Rusty Wallace reported that Roger Penske is hoping to retain Hornish for next season but a continuation is dependent on securing sponsorship money.
Hornish has been advised to shop his services elsewhere just in case Team Penske is unable to seal the deal.
