Single seater veteran Richie Hearn drove to his first IRL IndyCar Series pole since August 1996 as he planted the #2 Team Menard Dallara-Chevrolet on the top of the charts for Sunday's Delphi Indy 300 at the Chicagoland Speedway.

For the second weekend in succession, stalwart IRL operation Team Menard have elected to withdraw from an IRL IndyCar Series event after substitute driver Jaques Lazier crashed the team's primary #2 Dallara-Chevrolet just six laps into Friday's opening practice session at the Nazareth Speedway.

Jaques Lazier's apparently love/hate relationship with John Menard is back on again for the time being after the Colorado-based native was re-hired by Menard in place of the injured Vitor Meira for this weekend's Firestone Indy 225.
