Sportsdrink+ athlete Joel Miller regained the championship lead this past weekend by finishing second for Round 8 at Mosport International Raceway in Canada.

After qualifying 2nd for the race on Saturday afternoon, Miller was poised for a strong run.  "The past few weeks have been really difficult for sure and I am happy to be starting on the front row", he commented before the race.

Too much wheel spin at the start resulted in Miller falling to 4th place but he regained his composure and took 3rd position with a brave move around the outside of Charles Hall into turn 8 before the first yellow.  Making the most of the restart, Miller passed Edwards for second going into turn 1 and set his sights on the leader.  Unfortunately another full course caution appeared with just under 20 minutes left in the race caused by numerous incidents, the result of oil around the circuit.  The race never went green and ended with the field behind the pace car with Miller in second.  "The car was getting better with each lap", said Miller.  "It would have been interesting to see what would have come from a green-white-checkered finish as we were running a lot less wing than everybody else", Miller said after the race.  With another podium finish this weekend, his 5th in 8 starts, Joel Miller regains the championship lead.
