In the aftermath of disappointing attendance figures from April's Infiniti Grand Prix of Miami at Homestead Speedway, Indy Racing impresario Tony George has announced his intention to request a formal recount.

"I have recently learned that another open-wheel racing series ran at this track as recently as last season," spake a radiant George. "The implications are clear. Confusion in the marketplace could easily cause the largely elderly and foreign-born Floridians to mistakenly attend the previous year's Alternate Series race rather than the Indy Racing League event. The Alternate Series' persistent use of expensive equipment, preponderance of foreign drivers, and lack of Midwestern dirt-track talent should clearly put them at an attendance disadvantage. Something doesn't add up, because that's not what the numbers show."

Homestead Speedway officials were not certain how they'd respond to the request. "What does he want, a runoff?" opined one largely accentless track representative. "Last week this Bob Reif guy actually suggested that we ask each of our customers to buy ANOTHER ticket to last month's race just so we can count them again. Don't they know what it means to live on a budget?"
