Ending all speculation about which open-wheel series Dr. Jack Miller would be racing in next season, Tony George today presented the Indy legend with a big yellow hat.

"I'm pleased to announce that Dr. Miller will continue to compete on The Road to Indy," confirmed George. Mr. George failed to repond to allegations that he had personally financed the deal-clinching hat.

Rumors persisted that Roger Penske had offered Miller a berth on a specially-modified Dr. Jack-sized monkey booster as late as last week, until IMS officials learned of the plan and refused to release important navigational coordinates to Penske's Ilmor shops.
Through intermediaries, Penske suggested that he was sorry to hear of Miller's decision, as Penske's offer would have benefitted open-wheel racing as a whole.
