NO. 26 GAINBRIDGE HONDA

“Excited to go back to Toronto after a long break from racing in Canada. We haven’t run since the implementation of the aeroscreen. So it’ll be interesting to see how that changes our data from the last time we went. Hopefully, we can get a good finish for the No. 26 Gainbridge Honda.”

Andretti Autosport returns to track north of the border for the Honda Indy Toronto. The streets of Toronto welcome back the NTT INDYCAR SERIES for the first time in two years due to COVID-19 travel restrictions. Toronto has been a fan favorite for exciting race action since 1986. In 2022, the 11-turn, 1.786-mile circuit is sure to be packed with fans awaiting the return of one of Ontario’s largest sporting events.
