While it may have been a great individual honor for New Albany`s Bobby Rahal to have Sunday`s CART event at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course billed as “Rahal`s Last Ride,” the Miller Lite 200 was all about teamwork.Patrick racing teammates Adrian Fernandez and Scott Pruett finished one-two while Rahal, who is retiring from racing after this season drove his Miller Lite Ford Lola Cosworth to a third place finale in front of an emotionally charged home crowd.Mauricio Gugelmin and Paul Tracy rounded out the top five.Fernandez led the last 26 laps to best teammate Pruett by 25 hundredths of a second, claiming his second victory of the year and the third of his career. Sunday`s win was the first to come on a road course for Fernandez`s Tecate machine. It was the first time in 16 years that Patrick Racing had a one-two finish. Gordon Johncock and Mario Andretti accomplished the feat for owner Pat Patrick at 1982`s Michigan 500.”I wasn`t trying to do super fast laps, but consistent laps without getting extra fancy,” Fernandez said. “Scott (Pruett) was really determining the pace of the race and we both had excellent cars. I`m really proud of this one because I was getting tired. Those last 15 laps looked so long. This was truly a real team effort for Patrick racing.”Seventeen of the 28 cars who started the race finished. Thirteen of those finished on the lead lap.Average speed for the 83 laps on the 2.25 mile, 13-turn road course was 98.428 MPH. The race was slowed by five caution flags lasting a total of 17 laps.The first yellow was brought out early on the first lap when pole sitter Dario Franchetti, Bryan Herta, Jimmy Vasser, and Michel Jourdain ended up in a heap on turn 5. The incident sent the race`s top three qualifiers back to the garage after just a few seconds of racing.”Some of these guys need to figure out it`s tough to win a race when you`re sitting on the sidelines after the first corner,” Rahal said. “But they`ll learn.”As for his swan song appearance in his home state, both Rahal and his fans couldn`t have been happier for the 45-year-old native of Medina.”It`s been a wild week with all the special events and everything that`s gone on,” Rahal said. “Frankly, it was tiring. I was glad to see Friday come so I could concentrate on racing. As much as I looked forward to today, I faced it with some trepidation. If you let it, you could forget you came here for a race.””But when we came in yesterday, I think I was the only one not in tears. I just wanted to drive the best possible race we could and we did. I look at today as a way of saying thanks and a way of saying goodbye.”Sunday`s finish was the eighth time in 16 starts Rahal has finished in the top three at his adopted home track. He won the event in 1985 and 1986 and sat on the pole in 1983 and 1985.
