Ganassi confirms moves for Briscoe, Kanaan

Chip Ganassi Racing announced Friday that 2013 Indianapolis 500 winner Tony Kanaan will drive the No. 10 Target Chip Ganassi Racing Chevrolet and that Ryan Briscoe has signed a multi-year contract with the team and will drive the No. 8 NTT Data Chevrolet.

"We're here today because a lot of partners came together and pulled off something that only great partners can do," Ganassi said.

"I feel like one of the luckiest guys out there at the moment," Briscoe said. "This is sort of full circle. The first IndyCar I ever drove was one of Chip's back at the end of the 2004. It's been a rollercoaster ride since then."

Kanaan replaces Dario Franchitti in the No. 10 Target car.

"This year has been an unbelievable year for me," Kanaan said. "A lot of people know I almost had a history in the 10 car before Dario got there."
