IndyCar leaves the US for a 2-race trip to Canada, starting with the Honda Indy Toronto street race. Penske and Ganassi will be the teams to beat, but Andretti Autosport can be a factor, after winning in Long Beach with Mike Conway and in the last race at Iowa, with Marco Andretti. KV Racing has improved massively from the previous years after the arrival of Tony Kanaan, and they have been fighting for wins in races this year, so look for them too. Oriol Servia has shown good speed this year, and with 4 top-10 in 7 races at Toronto, he will be in the hunt. Same for guys like Wilson, Rahal, Hildebrand, Tagliani or Hinchcliffe, that with the proper car they can be very fast too.

What's the European time for the race start? Don't know much about Indycars but I believe Toronto has quite a decent track?

Time difference is 6 hours.

So the start would be around 20:50 CET here.

should be very soon. coverage of it here in the US is delayed because they are showing some post-stage tour de france footage that no one cares about.
