Franchitti tops field in Milwaukee

Dario Franchitti has won the pole position for Saturday's IndyCar race at the Milwaukee Mile, and will lead the field to the green flag for the second year in a row. Franchitti was fastest in Friday's qualifying session, turning a two-lap average of 168.737 mph to win the 27th pole of his IndyCar career. Franchitti won the Milwaukee race from the pole position last year. Justin Wilson, last week's winner at Texas, qualified second. Ryan Hunter-Reay was third, followed by points leader Will Power and Rubens Barrichello. Wilson and Power are two of the seven drivers facing a 10-position penalty for making an unapproved engine change, and will have to drop back into the field before the start of the race.
