Michele Rahal has an opinion as to why Red Bull unceremoniously announced it is leaving NASCAR. The Cup team is Toyota, Renaul-Nissan sponsors Red Bull F1. Why would Nissan allow it's infinity brand to be diminished with the Cup team driving Toyota's? http://www.motorsportsunplugged.com

Here's another question ... Why would Nissan avoid participating in NASCAR when they have a good NASCAR team infrastructure to build upon. They have abdicated this promotional position to Toyota, et al. In the USA, Honda at least can be seen supplying engines to IndyCar and sponsoring tracks. Where is the motorsports visibility of Nissan in this country?

Nissan (Goshn) has chosen to concentrate the Nissan brand on "Emerging" countries with very small cars as opposed to the larger markets such as the U.S. Goshn has said he wants to continue the Inifinty brand efforts for the U.S. market rather than spending huge amounts on Nissan other than advertising.
