Post Penske Racing fires Kurt Busch

http://www.thatsracin.com/2011/12/04...urt-busch.html
"For the second time in his Sprint Cup Series career, an off-track issue has cost Kurt Busch his job.

Busch will not return next season to drive Penske Racing's No. 22 Dodge, multiple sources confirmed to the Observer on Sunday night.

An official announcement of Busch's departure from the organization is expected today from Penske.

Just over a week ago NASCAR fined Busch $50,000 for the use of an obscene gesture and a profanity-laced tirade directed toward a media member during the Cup series finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

The incident with ESPN reporter Dr. Jerry Punch, which took place in the garage after Busch's car broke its transmission, was caught on video and posted on YouTube.

At the time, Penske Racing officials issued a statement saying they were reviewing the matter internally."

Good luck finding another quality team to drive for, Kurt. Some people really like shooting themselves in the foot, don't they?
