FOG BLOG SPORTS LOG: TORONTO HONDA INDY WINNER IS SCOTT DIXON!

Scott Dixon claims Honda Indy Toronto title to tie for 2nd most IndyCar wins in history Colton Herta places 2nd, Felix Rosenqvist finishes 3rd Scott Dixon joked all week that Honda Indy Toronto is his home race because Canada is part of the Commonwealth of Nations, making it as close as IndyCar gets to his native New Zealand.

Dixon took full advantage of that quasi-home track advantage on Sunday, winning the Honda Indy Toronto for a fourth time. More importantly, he tied racing legend Mario Andretti for the second most wins in IndyCar history at 52.

"You don't always get to win at home, you know? That's when you turn it up a little bit," said Dixon with a laugh. "Honestly, I feel like I'm home. The fans are super into it."

A.J. Foyt is IndyCar's all-time wins leader with 67. The 41-year-old Dixon said that despite his continued success he is no threat to Foyt's record.

"I probably need to be racing well into my 50s," said Dixon, who noted that IndyCar has become more competitive over his 21 years of racing. "It's tough but we'll keep going, man.

"If we can get on a roll here and knock out some wins anything's possible, but [Foyt] is pretty safe."
