Here is a piece of the article.
"De Ferran moved one point closer to clinching his first CART title today, claiming the pole for Sunday's Marlboro 500 with the fastest official closed-course lap in auto racing history.
Piloting a Honda/Reynard, the Brazilian clocked a lap of 241.428 miles per hour around the two-mile California Speedway, breaking the official track mark of 240.942 mph set by Mauricio Gugelmin in 1997."
The event will be televised on ESPN at 3:30pm Central time today, Sunday, October 29th. (I hope you remembered to set back your clocks for Daylight Savings Time.)
Here are the current standings.
