Hornish doubtful to run Indy 500 in 2008

Sam Hornish Jr. said Monday it’s doubtful he’ll be able to race in both the Indianapolis 500 and the Coca Cola 600 on May 25. In making the switch from open-wheel to stock car racing, his focus, he said, must remain on NASCAR and the Coca Cola 600. “If it was up to me, I would,” said Hornish, the 2006 Indy 500 champion. “It really depends how things are going over here. I think Roger (Penske) and I have talked about it a couple of times. There’s obviously nothing set. I think if we’re to a point where we feel confident with how we’re doing over here, (if) it’s not going to hurt us, that we would try it,” he continued. “But I would say it’s still way more not going to happen than could happen. So we’ll just see how the first couple months of this season play out. Hopefully, if I don’t get to race there this year, maybe next year.” Yahoo Sports Bookmark to:
