IndyCar Returns to Markham | Toronto News

Markham is hosting its first-ever IndyCar race this weekend, featuring a brand-new 3.5-kilometer track winding around Unionville GO and York University. After a six-year absence from Canadian soil, IndyCar returns with a fresh twist — and it’s not in Toronto. Expect extra transit options, road closures, and a thrilling Sunday showdown at 12:22 PM ET. Alex Palou, the reigning points leader and four-time champion, is the favorite, but Pato O’Ward, Kyle Kirkwood, David Malukas, and local teen phenom Anthony Martella are also in the mix. The NASCAR Canada Series debuts too, and fans can catch free practice and qualifying Friday — with donations going to Make-A-Wish Canada.
