Well, not really, the July 16-18, 2010 Honda Indy Toronto is half a year away. We just have to make it out of winter, spring, and part of summer and there we are. Dario Franchitti, winner of the 2009 Honda Indy Toronto race as well as the 2009 IRL leader, is in a good mood in Toronto's race, pictured above.
Watch some great highlights of the 2009 Honda Indy Toronto on my YouTube video.
Some good news from the Indy Car League - the Toronto race will be televised on ABC and the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series (NCATS) will be joining the Toronto Honda Indy weekend. This statement was found on the IRL website.
"NASCAR announced today the schedule for the fourth season of the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series presented by Mobil 1, which will take the series to some of the top racing facilities throughout Canada. The schedule features 13 dates at 13 different tracks across six provinces. The slate includes tracks and events familiar to the series, but the addition of a shared date with the Indy Car Series in Toronto is new for 2010."
NASCAR CATS is fantastic stock car racing and will be a welcome addition to the Honday Indy Toronto schedule. Here is a day at the NCATS race at Cayuga.
Speaking of NASCAR, while Danica Patrick will continue with the Indy Racing League and Andretti Autosport, for at least the next two years, she has said that she would like the opportunity to race in both NASCAR and the IRL. Here she is at the 2009 Honda Indy Toronto.
