IndyCar (Fontana): Tony Kanaan leads Ganassi 1-2, Will Power is 2014 champion

Tony Kanaan, who dominated Iowa, looked a strong threat to Team Penske at Pocono and who has just completed his first season with Target ChipGanassi Racing, ended 2014 with a flourish when he dominated the final two stints of the MAVTV 500 to take his first win for the No. 10 that his friend Dario Franchitti made so famous over the past five seasons. Kanaan generously dedicated the victory to the retired four-time champion.

“I told Dario, ‘I hope you feel a big part of this win, too,’” said Kanaan.

"We had a team meeting this afternoon and Chip says, 'If you win the last race you get brag about it for seven months.' So, I went ahead and did it.

"Great team effort, 1-2. Great pit stops. The boys did great and what an awesome feeling man. It's been a long time coming. We had close calls this year and I'm just glad."

Kanaan also graciously refrained from donutting, and left that to the new Verizon IndyCar Series champion…
