The Race of Champions- Nations CUP 2004 brings together 16 drivers from Formula One, the World Rally Championship, Champ Car, IRL IndyCar and NASCAR and the European touring cars championships. The drivers compete head-to-head as individuals for The Race of Champions and as members of two-driver teams representing their country for The Nations Cup.

Felipe Massa is joined by the IRL IndyCar champion for the Brazilian squad while ChampCar Champion Sebastien Bourdais is joined by former Prost Grand Prix test driver - turned Rally driver - Stephane Sarrazin for France.

Jean Alesi is in action in the second French squad with Sebastien Loeb, while the USA is represented by Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson. Former Champ Car and IRL racer Kenny Brack is in action for Sweden with DTM Champion Mattias Ekstrom while Finland has Heikki Kovalainen and Marcus Gronholm on hand.

“Having watched the event with interest for many years, I am very much looking forward to competing against the entry of World class contenders,” said David Coulthard who along with the rest will have the use of a Ferrari 360 Modena, Citroen Xsara WRC and Peugeot 307 WRC.

Yeah, it is a fun race that run like "the spectators stage" in WRC which make you think it would be a piece of cake for WRC guys.  Last year, the joke was on them coz the winner turn out to be the guys from NASCAR!!!
In racing, you either lead or follow or GETTA HELL OUT OF THE WAY!!!!
