Race PreviewAfter a one-year absence, the IZOD IndyCar Series returns to The Milwaukee Mile. Scott Dixon won the 2009 race, holding off pole sitter Ryan Briscoe. Dario Franchitti finished third and Graham Rahal was fourth.
The one-mile oval drives more like a road course because of the flat corners, which produces exciting racing. Drivers can't go flat out on the course, which creates overtaking opportunities in the turns as well as the straights.
The Mile opened in 1903 and little has changed to the configuration.
