Dario Franchitti: “We Had Too Much Push in The Car And Ended up 10th”



After posting the fastest time in the first practice session, Canadian Club driver Dario Franchitti missed most of the second practice due to an electrical problem and will start from the 10th position for the ABC Supply Co. /A. J. Foyt 225.

Television coverage of Sunday’s race can be seen on ABC beginning at 4 p. m. (EDT). The IndyCar Series radio broadcast of the 225-lap event can be heard live on XM Satellite Radio channel 145, the exclusive home of the IndyCar Series.

Dario Franchitti, #27 Canadian Club Dallara/Honda/Firestone:

“I am very disappointed in the qualifying performance. This morning went very well. We were quickest in the morning session. We had some electrical issues that stopped us from running most of the second session. We missed about half of it. So, we had to guess on the qualifying set up and we guessed wrong. We had too much push in the car and ended up 10th. Hopefully the Canadian Club car will be better for the race. ”
