Dreyer & Reinbold Racing turns to a road course ringer again this weekend at Infineon Raceway.

Ryan Briscoe, who started from the pole in the inaugural race on the 12-turn, 2.26-mile circuit last year and recorded a third-place finish in June at Watkins Glen International for the team, returns in the No. 5 Honda-powered Dallara for the Indy Grand Prix of Sonoma.

Sarah Fisher competed in the car at Kentucky Speedway two weeks ago (started and finished 12th), and will drive in the season-ending race at Chicagoland Speedway on Sept. 10. Briscoe, who recently moved from Indianapolis to Charlotte, N.C., last week drove in a V8 Super Car race in his native Australia.

“I love Infineon,” said Briscoe, who claimed the top spot after the “Firestone Fast Six” competition that followed single-car qualifying. “I was on pole there last year and I can’t wait to head back there with the Dreyer & Reinbold team. We’ve had success together. We got third at Watkins Glen and that was a great result, and I think another top five won’t be out of the question.”
