Las Vegas Practice 3: Power fastest

Team Australia's Will Power recorded the top practice speed in Saturday morning practice 3 in Las Vegas for Champ Car's Vegas GP. Sebastien Bourdais led most of the session but Power beat him by 2/10th of a second right at the end of the session.

Bourdais' rookie teammate Graham Rahal lost control of his car when his right side tires rode over the Turn 11 chicane at the wrong angle, which sent his car across the track where his left-front struck the concrete barrier. He will be forced into his backup car which is brand new and has never turned a wheel.
