FAST FACT Firestone Racing supplied more than 1,330 tires for the Honda Indy Toronto. With an average width of 30 centimeters, those race tires would stand nearly as tall the CN Tower when stacked. Injured Canadian driver James Hinchcliffe brings smiles to the faces of fans and competitors alike as he delivers the command to start engines at Texas Motor Speedway via the massive video board known as “Big Hoss.” Chris Jones/IMS Photo WHAT TO WATCH FOR THIS WEEKEND: MONTOYA AIMS FOR FIRST TORONTO WIN: Juan Pablo Montoya (right) has controlled the Verizon IndyCar Series point standings since the start of the season and carries a 35-point advantage into the Honda Indy Toronto over teammate Will Power. But the Colombian hasn’t fared well in Toronto, never finishing in the top 15 in four previous starts. Can Montoya score his first win in Toronto this weekend? RESURGENT GANASSI TEAM SEEKS ANOTHER WIN AT TORONTO: Chip Ganassi Racing hopes to recapture its success on the streets of Toronto, where it has won six times previously. Scott Dixon, who won last weekend at Texas Motor Speedway, has a pair of Toronto wins and has seven top-five finishes in 10 previous starts. Tony Kanaan had a pair of podiums last season and Charlie Kimball scored his first-ever podium at the track in 2012. Can Ganassi cars keep the momentum going this weekend? MARCO LOOKS TO END WINLESS DROUGHT: The Andretti name has been a major part of open-wheel racing history at Toronto. Michael Andretti won a record seven times on the temporary street course. Can Marco Andretti add to his family’s legacy at the track and find success on the Toronto circuit like his father? ADRENALINE FIX. ON DEMAND. Every lap. Every angle.
