Paul Tracy leads the Champ Car points race into Miami this weekend, as Sunday's Grand Prix Americas is race No. 16 of 19 on the CART schedule. Bruno Junqueira's title hopes are still strong, but Michel Jourdain Jr. and the rest of the field will need to get hot and hope Tracy and Junqueira stumble. Here's a breakdown:

TITLE CONTENDERS
Driver	Points     back	Last     race	Last year at Miami
Paul Tracy	0	4th	12th
Skinny: Junqueira is by no means out of striking distance    -- especially if Tracy gets too aggressive. But at this point,     it's Tracy's to lose.
Bruno Junqueira	18	1st	5th
Skinny: Coming off a win, Bruno's got big mo.    And knowing that one Tracy slip-up down the    stretch might be all he needs, Junqueira's in good shape.
Michel Jourdain Jr.	39	6th	6th
Skinny: Jourdain needs help -- but not that much.    Has been strong lately, but needs a few podiums    and a DNF or two from Tracy or Junqueira.
Sebastien Bourdais	62	2nd	n/a
Skinny: Really, the rookie would need to    run off a few wins down the stretch. But if anyone can    put together a string of wins, it's Bourdais.
Patrick Carpentier	76	17th	16th
Skinny: Title hopes are essentially gone,    but still can make gains in standings and    sweeten Player's final season in CART.
