- Ryan Hunter-Reay's bid to win a fourth consecutive IndyCar Series race got off to a rough start in Edmonton. The series points leader was penalized in Friday's first practice session -- he was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct -- for running James Jakes wide on the course. Later, IndyCar said he'll be dropped 10 spots on the starting grid because his Andretti Autosport team changed his engine after the July 8 race at Toronto.
