During his two & one-half seasons in IndyCar to date, Justin Wilson has claimed two race victories, but has never started an event from the Pole position: That will change tomorrow. The Englishman has claimed his first Pole during qualifying for the Honda Indy Toronto, beating out Team Penske's Will Power, them man who has largely dominated the road/street events so far in 2010. Wilson set a new track record, getting around the eleven turn, 1.75 mile street circut in just  1:00.270 minutes. “We’ve had a couple of tough races so to come back and get the pole here is just fantastic,” said Wilson. “Everyone at Dreyer & Reinbold has worked so hard. After the difficulties at Watkins Glen and Iowa, it’s been tough.  We’ve been working so hard, trying to stay focus and stay on track and not go off on a tangent.”

This is Dreyer & Rheinbold Racing's second ever pole: the first comming back in 2002 at Kentucky, courtesy of Sarah Fisher.
