The Ontario Honda Dealers Indy Toronto saw Canadian series and drivers in action through the three-day event.
Here’s a recap on the results.
Radical Cup Canada
Radical Cup North America featured a large field in Toronto for three races over the course of the weekend, part of it included the Radical Cup Canada contingent.
The first race of the weekend on Friday saw a win for Kenny Riedmann, with Travis Hill runner-up and Owen Clarke in the 1340 class with Tim Sanderson winning in Masters ahead of Robert Burgess and Liang Qui.
The second event saw a Riedmann repeat, with Brady Clapham second and Hill in third in 1340. Masters saw back-to-back victories for Sanderson with Burgess and Jon Sobol rounding out the podium.
Riedmann completed the weekend sweep in race three for 1340, with Hill in second and Chris Styles in third. A chaotic opening lap left the Masters class wide open, and Burgess was the one to capitalize, taking the win ahead of Daniel Earle and Qui.
Sports Car Championship Canada
It was an action-packed weekend for the Sports Car Championship Canada Series.
Coming off a strong debut in VP Challenge the previous weekend, Jack Polito took pole ahead of Justin DiBenedetto and Cayden Goodridge in GT4, Anthony Martella starting in the top spot ahead of Tom Kwok and Ron Tomlinson and Robert Cipriani-Detres would lead the TCA class to green ahead of Eric Kunz and Peter Hanson.
Race one saw a great run at the head of the field end with the #4 Porsche in the wall.
Polito took the win after a titantic battle for DiBenedetto for most of the race. Richard Boake took victory in TCR with Cipriani-Detres taking it home from pole position.
The second race of the weekend was punctuated by Polito doubling up ahead of Jared Odrick and Goodridge in GT4. Martella denied the sweep from Boake with Tomlinson rounding out the podium in TCR. Cipriani-Detres took home TCA top honours ahead of Kunz and Hanson.
USF Pro 2000
Mac Clark was the lone Canadian in the field for USF Pro 2000 and he quietly had himself a rather consistent weekend.
It started off with P7 in practice before qualifying in the same position for the first race of the weekend. The 20 year-old would go on to finished sixth.
Clark would have a tougher qualifying for race two, landing in 10th, but would keep himself out of trouble and come home one spot shy of a podium in fourth place.
