The fountain in Hart Plaza is named after Horace E. Dodge, co-founder of the Dodge automobile company. A fountain has been a backdrop of the Detroit Grand Prix since it began in 1982 - creating a link between the downtown circuit and the raceway on Belle Isle.

Sadie and I are enjoying our annual tradition today at the Detroit Grand Prix. I'm looking forward to watching some great action on the track and she's excited to check out all the interactive experiences in the fan zone!

As a parent, these are the moments that we hope develop into core memories. As a car guy, it's an amazing feeling to watch your child embrace a passion that spans multiple generations.
