Ratings are in for Sunday's INDYCAR OnlyBulls Grand Prix of Portland. The race had 677,000 viewers, down 4% from last year. The race was head with the NASCAR Cup Series that was down 11% from its race last year.

Problem with Indycar is too many lapses in schedule. Hard to gain momentum with so many weeks off.

This race was also pretty boring and it was head to head with NASCAR. That’s never good for them
We don’t have any more lapses the rest of the season. 5 races in 4 weeks

This weekend's course
But it seems they are still scrambling to finish and make track ready. Could cause problems?

The race will happen, and everything will probably be fine when it comes to getting each session in.
BUT…
This should have never become a headline in the first place.
IndyCar is doing so many things right and making real progress, but it’s situations like this that still feel painfully IRL coded.

I’ll bet they don’t get in track today. Hope I’m wrong. Disaster. How can you not be ready. And so many things were not ready not just one thing.
The Arlington race was awesome earlier this year and they were ready.

What a mess

No track activity today at Markham.

If you haven't been following this, IndyCar and its support series were supposed to have practices today at the new street course in suburban Toronto.
It was delayed all day while they continued to finalize the course build...and now they won't be on track at all today. Yikes.

Statement from IndyCar president Doug Boles on the Markham track build not being completed in time to practice today:
"IndyCar is incredibly disappointed that our promoter was not able to complete the track build on time, despite significant support from our team on site. Ontario has always been a magnificent market for our sport and the number of spectators that attended today is a shining example of that. New events can always pose logistical challenges and we join in the frustration of our loyal fans and apologize.
"Once we hit the track, we believe the circuit will be spectacular. We would like to thank the city of Markham for the major support it has made to provide IndyCar a layout, which is fast, technical and will put on a terrific show on Sunday."
