I came across this article from AP. It looks like Montoya is done with F1

and moving over to NASCAR under Chip Ganassi.

LOL well isn't not like he is a golde nugget in the world of F1. I'm having it difficult to see what he finds to fun with driving around a circular track, rather than competing with some of the worlds best drivers.

It's been long rumoured that Monty will return to a North American circuit. No surprises here.

Good, since I don't follow Nascar I won't have to listen to him blame everyone else for his lack of results.

For money obviously. He's been lacking in F1, so maybe Nascar is better suited for him

Can't say I'll miss Montoya in F1 either. The big question that remains is who will be driving with Alonso next year?

whoa whoa u guys got it wrong...hes not making a bad career move...his image/popularity in the eyes of south and northamericans will increasse....hes probably also recieving a shitload of money...plus he isn't actually a bad driver i think montoya is awsome i actually like him more than raikonen and i kinda started liking him....hes exciting to watch...and 7 f1 victories can never be frowned upon...i think if williams never made a wonky noise on the fw26 montoya would have been world champion

he's not a bad driver, but certainly not as classy as kimi/alonso.. if you think he is forced out of F1 then you are probably wrong because, drivers like Barrichello/Fisichella/Coulthard and maybe even Button is inferior to Montoya.. But when his popularity is kinda dropping in F1, he might as well just leave F1 and go for money! he has said in the past he don't want to race forever...
