Motorsportand automobile demonstrations has a history at Exhibition Place going back over 100 years.[4][5]Automotive shows, displays, races and driving demonstrations have taken place on the grounds since the invention of the automobile, including the first appearance of anindy car,the1916 Indianapolis 500winningPeugeotduring the 1918Canadian National Exhibition.[6]

2003 Molson Indy pit lane and front straight.

From 1952 until 1966 thegrandstandhosted stock car racing on a paved quarter mile circuit on Friday nights and Sunday afternoons, hosting crowds upwards of 20,000 often broadcast live on CBC in Toronto.[7][8]In 1958 the venue hosted aNASCAR Cup Seriesrace, theJim Mideon 500.The race was the first ofRichard Petty's1,184 starts in NASCAR and was won by his fatherLee Petty.

Following the1977 Formula One Canadian Grand Prix,Labatt,the sponsor who held the rights to F1 racing in Canada at the time, as well as the owners of Mosport Park revived the proposal to move the race to Exhibition Place after theFIAdeemed Mosport as an unsuitable host facility going forward.[9]Toronto city council turned down the proposal by a margin of two votes and within a few hours, Montreal mayorJean Drapeauhad negotiated with Labatt to move the race permanently to Montreal.[10][11][12]

In 1984,Molson Breweriesin-house promotional division, Molstar Sports & Entertainment acquired the rights toCARTsanctioned IndyCar races in Canada and ran the firstMolson Indyat theSanair Speedwayoutside Montreal. The tight tri-oval was unpopular with the CART teams in part due to a severe injury toRick Mearsduring the first event.[13]In the spring of 1985, Molson revived the idea of a street circuit throughExhibition Placein Toronto for a third time. Toronto City Council approved the race by two votes in July 1985 for the race to be held the following year. [14]

Race history

edit

The first Molson Indy Toronto was won byBobby Rahalon July 20, 1986. The event quickly became Canada's second largest annual sporting event, eclipsed only by theCanadian Grand Prixin Montreal, with three-day attendance figures routinely around 170,000 people.[15]

Time trials for the 2013 race.

In the 1996 race, American driverJeff Krosnoffwas killed in a crash with 4 laps remaining. In that same crash, volunteer corner marshal Gary Avrin was killed, and marshal Barbara Johnston also received injuries in the crash; she was treated and released that evening.Adrián Fernándezwon the race.

The name of the race was changed in 2006 from the Molson Indy Toronto to theMolson Grand Prix of Torontoafter it was purchased by the Champ Car World Series from Molstar Sports and Entertainment. The name was also changed to distance Champ Car from the rivalIndy Racing League(IRL), which had gained the exclusive right to use the "Indy" name after 2002. In 2007, after Molson dropped their title sponsorship to the race,Steelback Brewerysigned a multi-year, multimillion-dollar deal to become the event's title sponsor, renaming it theSteelback Grand Prix of Toronto.This marked the first title sponsorship change since the event started in 1986.

The unification of Champ Car and the Indy Racing League was announced on February 22, 2008, and the Grand Prix of Toronto's future was left in doubt. After attempts were made to preserve the race for 2008, it was confirmed on March 5, 2008, that the race had been cancelled. On May 15, 2008,Andretti Green Racing(co-owned byMichael Andretti) purchased the assets of the former Grand Prix of Toronto.[16]On July 30, 2008, it was confirmed that the race would return to Toronto on July 12, 2009.[17]On September 18, 2008, Andretti Green Racing announced that it had signed a multi-year agreement withHonda Canada Inc.for the title sponsorship of the race, henceforth named from 2009 onward as the Honda Indy Toronto.[18]

In 2013, the race weekend was changed to a 2 race format with one race Saturday and one race Sunday. The Saturday race would feature a standing start while the Sunday race would be a rolling start. After an aborted standing start Saturday leading to a rolling start, teams and officials agreed to try the standing start again Sunday. The Sunday standing start was successful on its first attempt and was the first successful standing start in unified IndyCar series history (the Champ Car World Series had used standing starts late in its history shortly before unification). In 2014, weather forced both races to be run Sunday, exposing the difficulty in logistics of running two races in an already packed schedule. By 2015, both standing starts and the two race format were abandoned.

In 2016, the track layout was modified to accommodate the newly constructedHotel X Toronto.Under the new layout, the pit lane was moved to the opposite side of the race course, starting at the outside of turn 9 and exiting just after turn 11. This, in turn, made turn 11 a sharper turn than it had been in the previous configuration.[19]

Michael Andretti is the all-time race win leader with seven victories.

The 2020 and 2021 editions of the event were cancelled due to theCOVID-19 pandemic in Ontario,marking the second gap in the race's history. This came due to the restrictions that were in place barring non-essential travel at theCanada–United States border(as mostIndyCar Seriesraces are within the United States) and after MayorJohn Toryannounced that all mass public gatherings were banned throughout the summers of 2020 and 2021 respectively in response to the pandemic.[20][21]

Following the cancellation of the 2020 race, a new three-year agreement was reached in September 2020 between Exhibition Place and Green Savoree Toronto to host the event through 2023.[22]

On March 14, 2024 it was announced that the new title partner of the race would be the Ontario Honda Dealers, changing the name to the Ontario Honda Dealers Indy Toronto.[23]

NASCAR Pinty's Series

edit

The Indy Toronto circuit is based around Exhibition Place, but the heritage of NASCAR and Exhibition Place dates considerably earlier than the 2010 Canadian Tire Series round at Indy Toronto. In 1958,the 31st round of NASCAR's Grand National (now Cup Series) championshipwas held at the thirdExhibition Stadium(located on the site ofBMO Field). That race marked the Cup debut ofRichard Petty.
