Rumors are swirling at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway about Scott Speed.

However, Speed took to Twitter to deny the reports immediately after Fast Friday concluded.

Speed will "give up his seat"? Or was told to give it up?

Being fired is bad, but leaving will be looked on as being worse, no matter if he’s justified or was acting like a prima donna.
