Team:

Na het winnen van de Formula Vauxhall titel in 1993, twee jaar in Formule 3 en een DTM-avontuur maakte Dario Franchitti in 1997 de overstap naar de Amerikaanse autosport om Champ Car te gaan rijden voor Hogan Racing. Bij dit team wist de Schot zoveel indruk te maken, dat hij een jaar later de overstap naar Team Green kon maken, waarvoor hij in 1998 drie races zou winnen. In 1999 eindigde Franchitti zelfs gedeeld eerste in het Champ Car kampioenschap, maar doordat Juan Pablo Montoya meer races had gewonnen werd de Colombiaan als kampioen gekroond.

Na het 2002 seizoen maakte Franchitti samen met Team Green, dat omgedoopt werd tot Andretti-Green, de overstap naar de Indy Racing League. Na enkele moeilijke jaren en veel blessures, was Franchitti in 2007 niet te verslaan en won zowel de Indy 500- als de IndyCar Series titel. In 2008 maakte hij met Ganassi Racing de overstap naar de NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, maar successen bleven uit en keerde Franchitti aan het eind van het jaar met Ganassi terug naar de IndyCar Series.

De terugkeer bleek niet onsuccesvol te zijn, Franchitti van 2009 tot 2011 twaalf races en won elk jaar het kampioenschap. Na de zegereeks bleek 2012 een minder succesvol jaar te zijn, met slechts een zevende plaats in het kampioenschap en maar één overwinning. Deze ene overwinning scoorde de Schot echter wel in de belangrijkste race van het seizoen: de Indianapolis 500.
