When I first began wonder how much oval racing these former CCWS drivers had i thought that other than Junqueira and Servia there wasn't many with significant seat time. I learned that Justin Wilson has run and run well on ovals, and Will Power  has run one oval race at Milwaukee,

Oriol Servia attempted to make the 2002 Indy 500 with Derrick Daly, the combo struggled for speed, and then Bump Day was an afternoon washout.
