Dario Franchitti will partner Juan Pablo Montoya in the main car after Chip Ganassi yesterday announced their team for next month's Daytona 24 hours. The pairing of Scotland's Franchitti with the seven times grand prix winner is being viewed as a "dream team", as Ganassi seeks to retain their 2007 crown. Montoya, the former McLaren Formula One driver, won the famous US event this year with Scott Pruett and Salvador Duran. Franchitti, the Indycar champion, will team up in the same car, with Pruett and Memo Rojas also in the lead vehicle. The team's second car for the prestigious Florida endurance classic will comprise Alex Lloyd, Scott Dixon, Dan Wheldon and Duran.
