Sarah Fisher competes in 2010 as driver/owner once again, but as Sarah Fisher Racing grows, more races are scheduled than the 6 the team ran last year. Fisher also has added a teammate with Jay Howard for this season.  While scheduled to compete at both St. Pete and Barber Motorsports Park at the beginning of 2010, Sarah announced she would step aside to give rideless Graham Rahal a seat for these first two US-based events.

 

Sarah Fisher announced in February 2008 that she would be doing double duty as a driver and team owner of Sarah Fisher Racing. She competed in three events that year, posting 34^th in driver standings for the year. Her best finish was 15th at Kentucky.

 

Fisher was exposed to life at the racetrack at an early age. Her parents would take her to the track to watch her father drive sprint cars. Her first racing experience came as a 5 year old when her parents fitted her for her first race car -- a quarter-midget. After winning the World Karting Association Grand National Championships three times, Fisher caught the eye of open-wheel veteran Derrick Walker, who signed her at the tender age of 19 to his IndyCar Series team. She became the third female to race in the Indianapolis 500.

In 2000, Fisher became the third woman to compete in the Indianapolis 500. She went on to become the first female to earn a pole position and is the fastest woman to qualify for the Indianapolis 500 with a four-lap average of 229.439 mph. to keep up with Sarah, check out http://www.sarahfisher.com/ and her twitter page at http://twitter.com/SarahFisher67  ...coming into the season, Sarah has a twitter campaign going to get Ellen deGeneres to come to the Indy 500 as her guest...check on their progress.
