Autoracing Betting Lines

07/03/2010 - Watkins Glen, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Team Penske dominated Saturday's qualifying for the IZOD IndyCar Series race at Watkins Glen International, with points leader Will Power grabbing the pole for the Camping World Grand Prix at The Glen.

Power rounded the 3.4-mile, 11-turn road course in one minute, 29.3164 seconds to give Penske its eighth consecutive IndyCar pole this season and its sixth straight pole at Watkins Glen.

"It's awesome to have the car on pole again," said Power, who claimed his fifth pole of the season and the seventh of his IndyCar career. "We're certainly racking them up, but we've got to get the race win."

Power kicked off the season by winning the first two street/road course races -- Brazil and St. Petersburg, FL. He currently holds a 12-point lead over Scott Dixon, who did not make the final "Fast Six" session and ended up qualifying seventh.

Helio Castroneves will start alongside Power on the front row after qualifying 0.14 seconds behind his teammate.

"Each one of us wants to win, but as [team owner] Roger [Penske] says in the end, the team wins," Castroneves said. "Whoever is up there, it benefits the team."

Castroneves won the first three poles at Watkins Glen from 2005-07.

Ryan Briscoe, who won the pole here in 2008 and '09, qualified third, while defending series champion Dario Franchitti took the fourth spot.

Rookie Takuma Sato and Justin Wilson, the defending race winner, will share the third row. Dixon and Marco Andretti will make up row four. Mario Moraes and Adam Carroll, a newcomer to the series, will roll off from the fifth row.

One week after competing in the NASCAR Nationwide Series race at New Hampshire, Danica Patrick qualified a disappointing 21st in the 25 car field.

Sunday's IndyCar race at Watkins Glen is scheduled to start at 3:30 p.m. (et).
