History at Indianapolis
 
Juan Pablo MontoyaBMW WilliamsF1 driver Juan Pablo Montoya is set to return to the Indianapolis circuit for the United States Grand Prix. In his second attempt to win this race Juan Pablo has the opportunity to create his own little piece of history.

If he can win this race he will join a select few who have both won the Indianapolis 500 as well as in Formula One. Up to now only Jim Clark, Graham Hill, Emerson Fittipaldi and Mario Andretti have been the only drivers to win at Indianapolis and Formula 1 Grand Prix.

Montoya said: "A victory would be of great importance. I'll have good chances, my expectations are higher than usual. I've got good memories of Indianapolis. Last year, it was a narrow race and I was highly competitive."
