Chaves looks to keep momentum going in Toronto

Indianapolis –This weekend marks the last weekend of a grueling six-week stint on the Verizon Indycar Schedule that started with the Angie's List Grand Prix of Indianapolis in early May. While most teams are tired and looking forward to being off next weekend, Gabby Chaves and the BHA team are looking to continue their mid-season streak of driver career-best top ten finishes.
The Honda Indy Grand Prix of Toronto is the only trip north of the boarder for Indycar this season. The track is one of the oldest street circuits on the schedule, and is always a favorite stop for drivers and teams. Based around Toronto's Exhibition Place, the 1.75mile 11-turn circuit provide Chaves and the BHA team another great opportunity to score a career best finish…
"We are coming off two top tens in a row (Detroit 2 & Texas), which is really progress for the team and myself," stated Chaves. "So, I’m really looking forward to putting the hammer down in Toronto hopefully for a top five or a podium! I’m really just happy with the work the Bowers & Wilkins team has been doing, we’ve been getting better and better together. And I’m really looking forward to seeing how strong we can get through the remainder of the season ~it looks good from here we’ll keep working hard!"
A top-5 or podium finish for the young Colombian driver is not out question. Chaves finished second in both of his Indy Lights appearances in Toronto. Toronto is the last street race of the 2015 season, and likely the BHA team's best chance of any of them to climb on the podium…
