IZOD Indycar has also turned on the engines in season 2013. The start of the Championship has been as usual from St. Petersburg, where there are the beaches of Tampa Bay. It runs in a city that also goes from the airport to prepare the drivers to “attack” the ovals. The reigning champion Ryan Hunter-Reay has missed the first occasion because his box has done spectacularly wrong the first tire change, Ryan has sailed in the back throughout the race, unable to make any comeback at all, resulting in the end only 18th. The winner has been James Hinchcliffe, the first Canadian to win after Paul Tracy, who won back in 2007 at Cleveland.
