Hinch feels the Heat?

Hinchcliffe getting beaten regularly by Wickens

We caught up with Sam Schmidt before Race 2 this weekend at Detroit, and were able to ask, "Where did you find Robert Wickens, and are there more of him?" Wickens has show very strong results so far in his rookie season, and is well liked by the paddock — a great combination. "Yes, there are more like him" commented Sam. "Right now there is more talent than there are rides!".

Normally this wouldn't be taken as anything more than praise for Wickens, but it's no secret that team mate James Hinchcliffe has been struggling. Getting bumped at Indy, plus finishes of 11 and 16 this weekend, can't make him very comfortable.

Hinchcliffe has a great career ahead of him in the broadcast booth if things go from bad to worse in the cockpit
