Louis Foster started from the pole-position, didn't mess up in the restarts and won race 1 of the Indy Pro 2000 in Toronto in dominating fashion
Exclusive Autosport's Louis Foster won race one of the Indy Pro 2000 in Toronto on Saturday afternoon. Starting from the pole-position, the Briton gave no chances to his rivals, survived two restarts, and finished the race more than five seconds ahead of Juncos Hollinger's Enaan Ahmed. Turn 3's Josh Green completed the podium in Canada.
The race began with an incident right at the start. Jonathan Browne lost his front wing and the yellow flag was brought out early on. The race was restarted on the second lap, with no change in the pack order.
On lap 9, Mexican Salvador de Alba crashed in turn 3 and caused the second yellow. The Jay Howard driver was able to get back on track, losing only his front wing. The race was restarted two laps later and Josh Green took advantage of the restart to overtake Reece Gold and take third place.
Meanwhile, Foster shot into the lead ahead of Ahmed to triumph for the fifth time this season, with Green third. Gold was fourth, followed by Nolan Siegel, Yuven Sundaramoorthy, Jordan Missig, and Jack William Miller. Brazilian Kiko Porto was ninth and Jonathan Browne completed the top ten.
With the result, Louis further increased his lead in the 2000 Indy Pro series, with 63 points ahead of Gold. Porto is currently seventh, 108 points behind Gold. The category returns this Sunday (17th) at 12:40 pm for race 2, with Foster again starting from the pole-position.
