No, you aren't wrong. They even paid back all the fees that they had to pay, even though they were early.

People don't get into racing because it's cool, they get into it because it's great marketing. This is a good marketing strategy! Get back into it when the cars are made here, and someone can honestly have a fully american team, with cars made here, engines made here, and drivers from here.

Thumbs up to Chevy!

Also, on that note, why aren't you pitching a fit about the US Army, or the National Guard sponsoring race teams? Where do you think that money comes from?
