Bleak Outlook for Racing in 2020
Bleak outlook for racing in 2020 By Norris McDonaldSpecial to the Star Fri., April 10, 2020timer7 min. read The Formula One Canadian Grand Prix was postponed this week because of the pandemic. Can the cancellation of the 2020 Honda Indy Toronto be far behind? And what about racing at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park, Shannonville, Jukasa Motor Speedway and other small speedways in southern Ontario? The outlook is not good. I talked to a number of people in the industry in recent days and, while they all expressed optimism, the likelihood of racing wheels turning in front of large crowds this summer and fall is practically nil. Barring a miracle — and I repeat: a miracle — there is no way the IndyCar race at Exhibition Place, the IMSA SportsCar weekend at CTMP, the NASCAR weekend at the same place in September and the Canadian Short Track Nationals at Jukasa (a.k.a. the Bubba Pollard benefit) can take place for the following reasons: • There is no indication the COVID-19 epidemic is slowing. The number of sick, dying and dead is increasing daily. All big events in Montreal and Toronto (which means the rest of Ontario and Quebec, too) are cancelled or postponed through June, which means the earliest racing could get going is July. But don’t think for a second that everything would suddenly be back to normal. We wouldn’t want to think we’ve beaten this thing, only to have it come back because we got careless. We will be taking baby steps. In fact, the prime minister said as much Wednesday.
