Pruett and Rojas win again at Grand Prix of Miami

HOMESTEAD, Fla. (AP) - Scott Pruett and Memo Rojas won the Grand Prix of Miami for the second straight year Saturday to extend their Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series winning streak to a record five races.

Pruett and Rojas, driving for Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates, won the final three Daytona Prototype races last year and took the season-opening Rolex 24 At Daytona.

On Saturday at Homestead-Miami Speedway, Rojas started the No. 01 MBW/Riley on the pole, was shuffled back to 11th because of a drive-through penalty for aggressive driving, then advanced through the field and eventually regained the lead.

Rojas turned the car over to Pruett with approximately an hour remaining in the 2-hour, 45-minute event. After falling back to third, Pruett battled and finally got by Max Angelelli in Turn 8 in the closing minutes, leading the final seven laps.

Darren Law passed Angelelli with 3 minutes remaining and went on to finish second in the No. 5 Porsche/Riley started by co-driver David Donohue. Angelelli held on for third in the No. 10 Chevrolet/Dallara started by Ricky Taylor, after the team led a race-high 47 laps.

In the GT class, Paul Dalla Lana kept the No. 94 BMW M3 in contention throughout his stint and Bill Auberlen took over to lead 80 of the final 82 laps for the victory.
