On October 3, 2007, it was announced that Nelson Philippe would be returning to Champ Car and driving for Conquest Racing. Philippe would race in Surfers Paradise as well as Mexico City. At the time, he said: “I’m thrilled that I’m back, and there’s no better time than right now with Surfers Paradise just around the corner [October 21]. Although it was difficult to be absent this year, things happen for a reason. Right now, Australia and Mexico are moving at full speed. Philippe finished a respectable 13th place in the season despite having to sit out. He then placed a sixth at Surfers Paradise. Philippe said that the race was “probably one of my best races,” despite the fact that the results might not reflect it.

Nelson Philippe returned to race with Minardi/HVM Racing in the 2008 Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach. This was the final Champ Car World Series race after the merger with the Indy Racing League. He gave tribute to the series that made his career wearing a race suit with past and present Champ Car logos and “Thank you Champ Car staff and fans” inscribed on the back. He finished 15th in the race.

During practice for the 2009 Indy Grand Prix of Sonoma, Nelson Philippe, who was returning to the series for a few late-season road course races with Conquest Racing, spun exiting Turn 3 and stalled on the track. E. J. Viso barely avoided him but Will Power had nowhere to go and crashed into the stationary Frenchman. Power suffered two fractured vertebrae while Philippe suffered a fractured ankle. Both also suffered concussions and were subsequently hospitalized.

Philippe switched to CTE-HVM Racing for the 2006 season. He earned his first podium finish at Milwaukee and Montreal, before taking his first victory at Surfers Paradise. Philippe won Surfers Paradise and became the youngest Champ Car World Series winner. He was also awarded the title of most improved driver for 2006. Philippe was not able to drive because of his 2006 success. The financial climate meant that drivers would have to pay money to the team in order to race. Philippe declined to do this after his 2006 victory.
