Motorsport extra
Former Bedford School pupil Dan Wheldon had to settle for 20th place in the Honda Indy Edmonton at the City Centre Airport.
The National Guard Panther Racing team driver driver but problems meant he couldn't make a dent on the field.
Wheldon said: "It's been a very tough weekend for us, but I think the National Guard Panther Racing boys continue to work very hard and never give up.
"We found something that helped us in the warm-up and had we not had the problem during the race we would have been even quicker out there towards the end of the race. But unfortunately we had a problem and that's the way racing goes, but it wasn't for a lack of effort that we didn't get the result we wanted."
That result leaves him 10th in the IZOD IndyCar Series points standings.
The IZOD IndyCar Series will take a weekend off prior to traveling to the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course.
