2012 Toronto Honda Indy

The Honda Indy event in Toronto, Ontario took place this weekend (July 6-July 8, 2012). The day that we went on was on the Saturday. Not the busiest day compared to Sunday (day of the finals), but it was still packed!

It was a whole new experience for us watching the race since we've never been to an Indy car race before. Luckily, Ferrari provided us with earplugs in our Ferrari Fan Zone swag bags that came in good use and therefore allowed us to catch the action up close. After watching the race, we got to enjoy a car tour of Ferrari, Lamborghini, and more! My favorite of them all was the Ferrari 458 Italia which I chose to snap a shot of it with me in it. The second tour we went on was in the IZOD IndyCar Series paddock, a behind-the-scenes access.


Going to this event was more fun than I had expected. Wherever you went there was always live entertainment and food vendors. In the Honda tent, they were providing free food (popcorn, cotton candy or snow cone) to the general public. Since there were so many sponsors for this event: Doctor Pepper, Snapple, Toronto Amsterdam Brewery, Honda, Hot Wheels and many others, there were always tents that provided you free samples of drinks that would keep you hydrated. Lastly, I just want to thank the volunteers, they were so helpful and knowledgeable!

Most importantly I want to thank Ferrari for letting me take part in this amazing event with my sister.

Congratulations to Ryan Hunter-Reay for winning the 2012 Hondy Indy Toronto!
