Formula One is taking over the Truck Series!

I'm watching the Truck Qualifying right now and they just interviewed Kyle Busch about his deal with Kimi, and he said they're going to be doing some testing on Monday to get him some laps in the Truck, and right after that interview little Piquet took to the track and put it on provisional pole.

I guess I should say former Formula One drivers are taking over the Truck Series.

edit - Piquet, Jr. ended up P9
