Montiero chasing $5M IndyCar bonus

Portugal's Tiago Montiero

Former Formula 1 and Champ Car racer Tiago Monteiro is in talks to chase the $5m bonus for the IZOD IndyCar Series season finale at Las Vegas.

The series is offering a $5 million bonus for any non-IndyCar regular driver who can win the race, although Monteiro said that it was not just the prize money that appealed.

"I know a few teams from my time there and some of them asked if I was interested," he told AUTOSPORT. "I said, 'Yes' right away. Even if there was no $5 million, I would do it." Racer.com
