HOMESTEAD, Fla. (AP) - Dario Franchitti's return to IndyCar
racing couldn't have gone better. He's the IRL champion once again.
Franchitti successfully emerged from one of the closest points
races in series history Saturday, winning the season-ending Indy
300 at Homestead-Miami Speedway in the first caution-free IRL race
ever.
The 2007 champion - who skipped 2008 to explore NASCAR - held
off Target Chip Ganassi teammate Scott Dixon and Penske Racing's
Ryan Briscoe.
So on the 10th day of the 10th month of the year, Franchitti's
No. 10 car reigned supreme over the IRL.
