We rejoin you with less than an hour to go...and it looks like Chip Ganassi will write some racing history as a three time consecutive winner of the Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona, barring the appearance of some gremlin in the next few minutes. Juan Pablo Montoya showed why he excelled in open wheels and caught on quicker than most expected in NASCAR racing. Dario Franchitti looks to join an exclusive club of Daytona 500 winners, Indy 500 and 24 Hour winners (AJ Foyt, Mario Andretti,), along with teammate Montoya when the Cuppers take the track on February 8 for practice for the 50th Daytona 500. Mark Donohue was the first of a few to become winners of the 24 and the Indianapolis 500..Franchitti will join that group, again, barring incident.
More from Daytona after the race finishes.
