Another record-setting performance from Pirelli-equipped racers made the Aug. 28 Montreal
200 at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve one of the most memorable competitions in the company's
three-year sponsorship run in the Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series.
Scott Pruett and Memo Rojas co-drove to a record eighth series Daytona Prototype win to
clinch the 2010 Daytona Prototype Team Championship. They may also win their second
series driver championship as a duo in two weeks at Miller Motorsports Park in Salt Lake
City if each drives for a minimum of 30 minutes in the season-ending race.
"It's been an incredible season for us," Pruett says. "We've hit on something that's
incredible, and I can't say enough about the Pirelli tires. We really know how to get the
most out of them at the different tracks. It's truly been a dream season, and it (winning
in Montreal) takes some of the stress off going into Salt Lake City."
Pruett and Rojas shared the victory-lane podium with the second-place team of Jon
Fogarty and Alex Gurney along with third-place finishers Ricky Taylor and Max
Angelelli.
"The Pirellis held up really, really well," Angelelli said. "Those tires have proved to
be good in all types of conditions and weather and they are enjoyable to drive."
