Young Dominican driver Daniel Vela is one of three young drivers accepted into the BMW Junior Pilot Program for 2009. The news was announced by BMW Series Manager Randy Briggs. The program is partly responsible for the successes of drivers Sebastian Vettel, Robert Kubica, Robert Wickens and Esteban Gutierrez. Vela says he was unsure if he would be accepted into the program because of pains in his right hand, but he followed his father's advice and did the best he could. Hoy reports that Vela has been the best driver in his category in the Americas, including divers from Canada, the US and Brazil. Vela is quoted as saying, "We Dominicans can do it. Domini...Can!"
