Edmonton, Canada (My Sportsbook) - Ryan Briscoe captured the pole for Saturday's inaugural Rexall Edmonton Indy. The No.6 Team Penske driver circled the 1.973-mile, 14-turn temporary street/airport course in one minute, 0.7311 seconds (116.955 m.p.h.).

The pole victory was Briscoe's second of the season and third of his IndyCar career. Team Penske has now won four consecutive poles.

Starting alongside Briscoe will be teammate Helio Castroneves who recorded a speed of 116.753 m.p.h.

Oriol Servia (116.710 m.p.h.) and Scott Dixon (116.710 m.p.h.) will start in row two.

Will Power and Justin Wilson were the other two drivers running in the final of the three-segment qualifying session at City Centre Airport. Power and Wilson will start fifth and sixth, respectively.

The 12 quickest drivers, the top-six from each of the first two qualifying groups, then competed for 15 minutes to eliminate six drivers for the final segment.

The Rexall Speedway, located at City Centre Airport in Edmonton, Alberta is no stranger to motor racing. This track previously hosted ChampCar Series events for three seasons. Sebastien Bourdais, now racing in Formula One, won at Edmonton twice, while Wilson took the checkered flag in 2006.

Seven drivers racing at Edmonton this weekend have competed in a previous ChampCar event there. Wilson, Mario Dominguez and Servia have run in all three races at Edmonton, while Bruno Junqueira and Power have raced in two events there. Ryan Hunter-Reay and Graham Rahal have one start each there.

Heading into Edmonton, Dixon leads in the points race, owning a 58-point advantage over Castroneves. Dixon finished third last week at Mid-Ohio, while Castroneves came in second. With the victory, Briscoe moved into fifth in the standings. Briscoe recorded his second career IndyCar victory. His first win came last month at Milwaukee.

The green flag is scheduled to drop on Saturday around 5:00 p.m. (et).
