West Allis, WI (My Sportsbook) - Not since 1964 has a driver won the first four races of the season in the series (A.J. Foyt won the first seven). Back then they called the series the USAC Series, the precursor to CART and ultimately the Champ Car World Series.

In the "modern" era Sebastien Bourdais tied Paul Tracy's 2003 mark of three straight to open a season with his win in Monterrey, Mexico.

The No.1 McDonald's Lola driver crossed the Fundidora Park finish line 3.066 seconds ahead of Justin Wilson.

The win also extended Bourdais' championship lead to 25 points over Wilson (102-77).

So the question is can anyone knock off the leader as the series travels to West Allis, WI for the Time Warner Cable Roadrunner 225?

"Monterrey was fairly satisfying," said Wilson. "Hopefully, it was a sign of good things to come. We've still got areas we need to work on but we're looking forward to getting to some of the more traditional road circuits where we feel like we've got it in us to capitalize on what we learned last year on those tracks."

There is good news for Wilson and the competition.

Bourdais has never won a pole nor a race on the flat one-mile oval in West Allis, WI. He finished a mediocre sixth in 2005 well behind winner Tracy. In 2004, he finished 18th and last and in his first year in the series (2003) he posted a ninth-place result at Milwaukee.

Wilson qualified third and finished fourth at Milwaukee last year.

Tracy, the defending champion, is tough to beat on short ovals. He has won at Milwaukee four times, including last year's win.

But Tracy has not been very good this season.

"We have a lot of work to do; we have to be consistently quick at all the tracks, not just some of them," said Tracy after a fourth in Monterrey. "But we need to start winning races to be able to catch up to Bourdais in the championship."

This week is a good spot for a turnaround and you should expect a big change from Tracy and the No.3 Forsythe Championship Racing team. Nothing less than a victory for the Canadian.
