IndyCar: Ryan Hunter-Reay takes his third consecutive IndyCar Series win today at Toronto. Now 5 drivers in the hunt for title.

What do you think? 
Wow, what a stat, this is Ryan Hunter-Reay's third win in a row in 2012 and here I thought that the 2012 IZOD IndyCar Season season was going to be a classic duel between Penske Racing and Ganassi Racing. But it looks like Andretti Autosport in Chevrolet power is playing spoiler this season as Ryan Hunter-Reay takes the point lead with 34 points over Penske Racing driver Will Power and that's cool to see.

However with Hunter-Reay winning his third race, while other championship contenders has issues, this has opened up the championship picture with what looks to be at least five drivers in the hunt for the 2012 IndyCar Series title including Will Power in second (-34), Helio Castroneves in third (-46), Scott Dixon in fourth (-54) and James Hinchcliffe in fifth (-67).

A personal note:
1. Congrats to Ryan Hunter-Reay on going winning his 3rd win in a row in 2012.
2. I really want to see James Hinchcliffle (mayor of Hinchtown) win one of five remaining races in 2012
3. Will Power win the championship.

Yes readers, I do have my favorites as well.
