Team Cheever 2003 - Rice?

[rev-ed]

It looks like efforts are underway to keep Buddy Rice on the Cheever side.

From Team Cheever PR piece:

Cheever marveled at the effort of his new protege, then indicated he's considering bringing Rice back for the 2003 season.

"Buddy did a phenomenal job," Cheever said. "I was watching him in the race. He took a car that should have finished eighth and finished fourth. Three races, and three finishes. That is a new record for Red Bull Cheever Racing. We are pleasantly surprised with Buddy."

I'd seen something else this weekend which quoted Eddie as saying he wanted Rice for 2003 also.

I like Buddy. Seems like a real down to Earth guy with alot of talent. Until this weekend, I was really hoping we'd see a Rice-Scheckter 1-2 punch in '03 for Team Cheever.

Considering?

CONSIDERING?

Who's he gonna hire who could do better?

I'd like to see Eddie retire after this season... so he can keep Rice and hire whoever else he wants for the second seat.

Another year and we'll be calling Cheever the DW of the irl.
