Tracy Suspended From Budweiser-G.1. Joe's 200 Qualifying
CART banned Paul Tracy from the second day of qualifying for the Budweiser G.1 Joe's 200 after an "unjustifiable risk" led to Friday’s first lap crash. He was fined 20000 dollars, placed on probation previously, and will miss part of today’s session but may race Sunday with his Friday qualifying time. Dallenbach called the incident preventable and linked it to Tracy’s earlier Detroit Grand Prix crash.
