Another Rahal on the way

Sons of famous fathers were in the spotlight in the Star Mazda Championship race at Montreal on Saturday with Bobby Rahal's son Graham taking on Michael Andretti's son Marco. Rahal, driving for Andersen Walko Racing qualified fourth on the grid with Andretti 10th in his MJ Motorsports car. In the race the pole man Raphael Matos took off into the lead and won the race while Rahal made a charging start to grab second at the first corner and he held on throughout the event to finish second, much to the delight of his doting father who was up in Montreal for the occasion.

Marco Andretti also did well and finished in fifth place.
