The Bay Street Grand Prix is inspired by Andrew and Devlin's shared love of go-kart, Formula One and IndyCar racing.

"We wanted to give back to the Women & Babies Program because of everything its team has done for our family," said Andrew DeFrancesco. "We're thrilled Mia Martina and Flo Rida are closing out our big day. They couldn't be more enthusiastic for the event and for this wonderful program that changes the lives of so many people."
