Franchitti earns pole in Iowa heats
Dario Franchitti will start Saturday night's IndyCar Series race at Iowa Speedway from pole position after winning the final qualifying heat race at the 7/8th mile oval. Franchitti (Ganassi) started from second on the grid behind Marco Andretti, but passed the Andretti Autosport driver around the outside on lap five to take the lead. Andretti lost another place to Penske's Helio Castroneves a couple of laps later, but the Brazilian was unable to make any dent in Franchitti's lead and settled for second, which is still enough for a front-row grid spot on Saturday
