American makes Formula One debut, but series still lags far behind NASCAR for U.S. attention
March 13, 2006Half a world away from Jimmie Johnson's last-lap NASCAR victory in Las Vegas, another California native was making racing history without any fanfare. Scott Speed became the first American since 1993 to compete in a Formula One race, finishing a respectable 13th in the Bahrain Grand Prix. But did anyone even notice?

An engine change sent him to the back of the field after he qualified 11th at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. A failure of his right front tire on lap 91 sent him into the wall and then home after finishing last in the 43-car field.
