Franchitti to Rusport?

We hear that Dario Franchitti may be doing the couple of Champ Car races of the season for the Rusport team, replacing Cristiano da Matta. We also hear that Andretti Green Racing will be running Patrick Carpentier. Franchitti's Andretti Green contract runs out at the end of the season and it is not yet clear whether he will return next year alongside Tony Kanaan, Marco Andretti and Danica Patrick.
