Ganassi's Dario Franchitti will be starting from the front line as he earned pole position for the upcoming IndyCar's first race in the Toronto double-header.
Franchitti clocked a time of 59.5756s, which was definitely good enough to let Sebastian Bourdais (Dragon Racing) finished second just 0.09s off Franchitti's lap.
Will Power (Team Penske) finished third while KV Racing's Tony Kanaan will start from fourth in front of James Jakes (Rahal Letterman Lanigan) who will probably get a 10-place grid penalty for an unauthorized engine change.
Franchitti's teammate Scott Dixon completed the top six.
