The action begins at 3 p.m. (ET) on Peacock Premium and the INDYCAR Radio Network, with the rolling start of 25 cars expected at 3:30 p.m. That’s one short of the sport’s all-time record set in 1952.

He will be trying to climb from 16th on the grid. Graham Rahal, who had the pace to reach the Firestone Fast Six but was one of those drivers who had his Q1 fast lap ruined by Kyle Kirkwood crashing and causing a red flag, passed the AJ Foyt Racing-Chevrolet driver down to Turn 3 in warm-up but on the dirtier inside line he locked up and nosed into the tire-wall. He still ended up seventh fastest, just ahead of another frustrated qualifier, Simon Pagenaud of Meyer Shank Racing-Honda, who is the defending race-winner here.

At Meyer Shank it’s very mouldable, as a driver you can leave your print and grow into what it could become in the future,” said Pagenaud. Bringing Pagenaud in 2022, Meyer Shank added a 15-time NTT IndyCar race winner who not only has experience on the track but is also to be a leader and innovator on a team that is newer compared to long-term teams in IndyCar. That’s what I’m really into at the moment.” As 2019 was the year Pagenaud took home the Honda Indy Toronto title, it would also be the last time he would win it with Team Penske — coming back to the city with a new team, he hopes to be able to bring Meyer Shank the same glory. ... It’s one of my favourite tracks, so hopefully it’s the one where we can close the deal this year.” “For that reason, it is interesting and allows me to show what it is I have not been able to show in the past and what people probably didn’t know I had like management, vision of the future for the team and ideas.

It was a gamble banking on a yellow flag to put him ahead of the field when it was time for them to pit — although not a huge gamble as in Toronto you can practically set your watch to when there will be a caution. His A.J. Foyt Enterprise car was plagued with gremlins as a fuel issue ended his qualifying bid early and smoke emerged from the back during the race that forced him to retire. The potential future teammates tapped tires with Rosenqvist sending Rossi into the tire barrier and out of the race. Just whether it will be in IndyCar or Formula One is the question as Herta completed a successful test drive with McLaren this past week. IndyCar may have set dangerous precedence heading into the final stretch of the season by brushing this one aside. That left him vulnerable to Rosenqvist, who had Herta in the sights but couldn't close the half-a-second gap in time. You be the judge and see below. Although it wasn't for the lead, Dixon found himself in front once everyone ahead of him cycled in for their stops. Suffice it to say, it paid off. Who says you can't pass in Toronto? Gridlock is a problem for drivers on Lake Shore Boulevard any other day of the week and the Honda Indy Toronto is no exception as it's a tricky track to make up ground. No penalty was issued for avoidable contact and as Rossi watched the remainder of the race from the paddock, Rosenqvist stepped on the podium holding a crystal trophy. Although Herta was beaten to the finish line by Dixon, he was also able to hang on and hold off Rosenqvist for second place.
