Andretti Green Racing


Biography

Regarded as AGR's lead driver, father figure and talisman, only misfortune at a couple of rounds in the first half of 2007 rendered TK an outsider for the title toward season's end: his second half was as strong as anyone's. Consequently, one of the strong favorites for reclaiming the crown he wore in 2004.
In the off-season, Kanaan, along with teammates, including F1 racer Rubens Barrichello, won Brazil's legendary Granja Viana 500 kart race.
