Last year: Ron Hornaday Jr. rallied from a lap down to win the Alan Kulwicki 250 at The Milwaukee Mile. Hornaday dropped a lap behind when the first caution flag came out while he was in the pits, but rebounded and took the lead for good with seven laps remaining.

Last year: Sebastien Bourdais took advantage of a first-lap crash that knocked out polesitter Paul Tracy and won the Cleveland Grand Prix for the second straight year. Bourdais finished 15.130 seconds ahead of Newman-Haas teammate Bruno Junqueira.

Fast facts: No driver has won this race three straight years. Emerson Fittipaldi and Danny Sullivan are the only three-time Cleveland winners. … Bourdais finished second at Portland and extended his lead in the standings to 11 points over Tracy. … Roberto Moreno’s victory in the 2000 race was his first after 16 years of racing and 70 series starts.

Last year: Dan Wheldon took advantage of a late crash that knocked out Hornish and Scheckter, and outdueled Helio Castroneves on the final lap to win the accident-plagued SunTrust Indy Challenge.

Fast facts: Hornish has three top-five finishes in the four IRL races at Richmond. … Buddy Lazier set three IRL records during the inaugural race in 2001.

Track: Gateway International Raceway.

Last event: Larry Dixon raced to his fifth consecutive Father’s Day victory by taking Top Fuel at the K&N Filters Supernationals at Old Bridge Township Raceway Park. Del Worsham (Funny Car), Jason Line (Pro Stock) and Antron Brown (Pro Stock Bike) also scored wins.

Last year: Tragedy occurred at the Sears Craftsman Nationals when Top Fuel driver Darrell Russell died as a result of a crash during the second round of eliminations. The 35-year-old driver’s car broke up while traveling about 300 mph and burst into flames just after crossing the finish line. Doug Kalitta won Top Fuel to take over the points lead in that category. Gary Scelzi (Funny Car), Greg Anderson (Pro Stock) and Steve Johnson (Pro Stock Bike) also won.

Fast facts: Line has won Pro Stock the last two weeks and has three victories this season. … Dixon’s win moved him into third place in the Top Fuel standings, 68 points behind leader Doug Kalitta. … Kalitta Motorsports drivers have made it to the Top Fuel final in each of the last seven weeks and nine times this season.

Next event: Mopar Mile High Nationals, July 17, Denver.

FORMULA ONE

Last race: The United States Grand Prix in Indianapolis was marred when 14 of the 20 cars boycotted the race in a tire safety dispute. Michael Schumacher won his first race of the season, two days after his brother Ralf crashed during a practice session while driving on the questionable Michelin tires.

Next race: French Grand Prix, July 3, Magny Cours, France.
