'It's a Dream of Mine to Race at Le Mans,' admits Dixon - FOXSports.com
But with Dixon having had a consistent part-time presence over the last decade in sports car racing, and with Ganassi going in full strength with the new Ford GT program starting next year, he’d be a natural to be a part of the program in some... Dixon, who together with IndyCar teammate Tony Kanaan and NASCAR stars Jamie McMurray and Kyle Larson won overall at this year’s Rolex 24 at Daytona, noted his Le Mans aspirations on Sunday after winning his latest IndyCar championship. “I think it’s something that maybe I’ll drive later on in the year at different races, maybe the 12?hour at Sebring or Petit depending on the driver lineup. “But it’s obviously a dream of mine to race at Le Mans, and it’s a dream of mine to race at Bathurst at some point, too, maybe start there with the 12?hour at some point early in the year. He also confirmed he’ll be back in the No. 01 Chip Ganassi Racing Riley-Ford with Scott Pruett and Joey Hand to close the year at Petit Le Mans, as he also was at Sebring back in March. “I think the fun part about this team is that you get to drive different sports cars, you get to do different races, which I’ll have later this year at Petit Le Mans, and the GT program is.
