That sucks. I figured Leigh Diffey wouldn't be joining ESPN since he's pretty set with Indy on NBCSN.

If I'm not mistaken wasn't Hobbs fired from ESPN way back when? Plus with his age (although I find him extremely insightful) I doubt he's what ESPN wants ... unfortunately they'll do something stupid like get Danica Patrick as their "race expert". (oy vey)

I can see them scooping up Varsha again, which would be cool.

Totally bummed that Will and Steve won't be going. I'm really going to miss Will's walk down pit lane, as well as, Steve's engineering insights.


Basically I see ESPN's coverage as ... just watching the action.
Oh geez, not Danica
Bob would be cool again.
Anyone thinking Ed China for some comic relief with Hobo gone
