Former Molson Indy boss to head the series' Canadian base source: slam.canoe.ca - Dean McNulty - Toronto SunThe Champ Car World Series is set to announce next week that it will open a Canadian base to be headed by former Toronto Molson Indy boss Bob Singleton, The Toronto Sun has learned. Singleton, who quit his job as general manager for Molstar Sports and Entertainment -- a wholly owned subsidiary of Molson Breweries -- a week ago, would not confirm what sources have told The Sun, but he did say his own plans would become clearer next Wednesday. That is the same date sources said that Champ Car will be making a major announcement about its Canadian races. "Some news will break by next Wednesday," Singleton said yesterday. "It will have something to do with open wheel racing in general and Champ Car in particular." When pressed by The Sun on where he would be setting up shop, Singleton would only admit that his new office would be in Toronto. "Depending on my clients, I could be spending a lot of time south of the border," he said. Champ Car's international corporate headquarters are in Indianapolis. Champ Car executives were in Australia yesterday preparing for this weekend's race at Surfer's Paradise and were not available to comment on plans for a Canadian base of operations.
