THE walk to the starting grid for Tony Kanaan began in his Indianapolis kitchen, through the foyer, past the trophy case, up the stairs, down the hall, through the master bedroom, master bathroom and finally into the closet.

That’s where the former Indianapolis 500 winner tucked away on Saturday to participate in a full day of iRacing on a simulator in the one place his wife will tolerate the rig.

Kanaan participated in two virtual races, a legends event won by three-time Indianapolis 500 winner Dario Franchitti.
