I would fully expect, if given the opportunity, he could jump in a F1 or Indy car and be VERY competitive in just a short time.
I too believe he could be just as good in an IndyCar or F1 car, but some think different. If you don't have 10 years’ experience racing formula cars against rich Brazilians and Europeans in fields of 8 or 10 cars then you have no talent and could NEVER learn to race a rear engine car. And if you’ve ever raced dirt then you get an automatic snide look down the nose at the mere thought!
