No IT outage can stop IndyCar from hosting an intense street racing action up north from the border with the Ontario Honda Dealers Indy Toronto.
The race begins with polesitter Colton Herta leading the grid while Christian Rasmussen and Santino Ferucci get their cars damaged, putting the race on yellow until Lap 4. Lap 5, meanwhile, saw Agustin Canapino smacked to the wall. As Graham Rahal swapped his steering wheel during a pit stop on Lap 32, Lap 54 saw pitstop issues for Josef Newgarden followed by Linus Lundqvist and Theo Pourchaire getting involved in a mess-up. Lap 57 saw Felix Roseqvist lock the brakes as he nearly crashed the car in front. With 18 laps left, Kyffin Simpson crashed into the tire barrier. With 13 laps left, the big one struck Ontario as Santino Ferucci flipped the car and caused a pile-up that caught some drivers, triggering a red flag. As Scott McLaughlin collided with the wall with just 9 laps to go, the climax is where everything's on the line.
