Wheldon works the garages

Indycar star Dan Wheldon was spotted at the Daytona 500 doing the rounds of the pit garages chatting to teams about the future. Wheldon, who is racing for Target Chip Ganassi Racing this year, is keen to move into NASCAR in the future, along with several other open-wheeler racers who are unhappy with the way single-seater racing in America is currently going.

It seems that Wheldon has finally accepted that a switch to Formula 1 is not going to happen.
