  • The Hawk Is a Lonely Hunter – English Racer Jack
    THE HAWK IS A LONELY HUNTER – ENGLISH RACER JACK HAWKSWORTH SCORES HIS SEVENTH WIN FROM HIS EIGHTH POLE IN SATURDAY'S STAR MAZDA RACE 1 AT THE 43rd ANNUAL GP3R Trois-Rivières, Quebec / August 4, 2012 – Well, if you're going to start from the pole, never put a wheel wrong and pull out a 24.394-second lead over your nearest competitor by the time the checkered flag waves, then you're going to have a lonely race. But, on a track that demands a surgeon's precision, it was also a magnificent race as English rising star Jack Hawksworth dissected the competition to score his seventh win from his eighth pole driving the #82 Team Pelfrey / TORGOEN Swiss Watches / EXA Networks Mazda. And, given that he turned the fastest lap of the race – for the 9th time this season – he will start from the pole -- for the 8th time this season – in tomorrow's Race 2. Finishing 2nd, 24.394-second back, was Sage Karam, who started third on the grid after qualifying just 2/10ths of a second off Hawksworth's pole time in the #88 Andretti Autosport / Comfort Revolution Mazda. Crossing the line third was Connor De Phillippi in the #2 Juncos Racing / ModSpace Racing / One24 Mazda. If scarcely happy – young men with a champion's temperament are rarely happy unless standing on the top step of the podium – he did at least seem to break the streak of bad luck that had dogged him relentlessly for the past several weekends. And special notice must be taken of the drive put in by Alex Ardoin, the racer from Lafayette, Louisiana, who after two years out of a race car, joined his old team for this one race and, after qualifying 8th, brought the #51 Team GDT Mazda home in 4th place.

  • Jack Hawksworth Transforms His Fourth Pole of the Season Into His Third Victory in Star Mazda Race 1 at the Toronto Indy
    THE HAWKSWORTH CONVERSION -- JACK HAWKSWORTH TRANSFORMS HIS FOURTH POLE OF THE SEASON INTO HIS THIRD VICTORY IN STAR MAZDA RACE 1 AT THE TORONTO INDY Toronto, Canada / July 7, 2012 – Team Pelfrey driver Jack Hawksworth re-asserted his position in the 2012 Star Mazda Championship presented by Goodyear with his third victory from the pole in Race 1 of the Star Mazda double-header at this weekend's Toronto Indy. Controlling the race from flag to flag – despite a standing start that left two cars stalled on the grid and several race incidents resulting in full-course yellows – Hawksworth brought his #82 Team Pelfrey / TORGOEN Swiss Watches / EXA Networks Mazda home 0.295 second ahead of Zach Veach, who started 3rd in the #77 Andretti Autosport / K12 / Zakosi Data Backup Mazda, and 1.156 seconds ahead of Gabby Chaves, who started 7th in the #19 JDC Motorsports / CLARO / Marca Colombia / Tecpro Mazda. Chaves now has three podium finishes this season and moves up to third in the points; Veach has two podiums, with today's result his best so far. With former championship points leader Connor De Phillippi falling victim to an ill-timed rainstorm in qualifying that saw him start 15th and a traffic-congested race that saw him finish 7th, Hawksworth regains the lead in the championship battle with 166 points to De Phillippi's 153. "I was able to control the race and run the pace I wanted, even with all the yellows and re-starts," says Hawksworth, who set the fast lap of the race and thus won his second PEAK Performance pole award of the weekend.

  • Mazda Road to Indy Quickly Growing Into Global Open-Wheel Driver Development Program with Announcement of New Partnerships in U.S
    MAZDA ROAD TO INDY QUICKLY GROWING INTO GLOBAL OPEN-WHEEL DRIVER DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM WITH ANNOUNCEMENT OF NEW PARTNERSHIPS IN U.S. AND OVERSEAS Mazda Road to Indy officials announced several new partnerships for the official driver development ladder of INDYCAR at the Grand Prix of St. Petersburg. The Skip Barber Racing School will now be the official racing school of the Mazda Road to Indy and INDYCAR, and create the Skip Barber INDYCAR Academy, a year-long program that will culminate in a driver winning a scholarship to race in the Skip Barber Racing Series. The upcoming British Formula Ford champion will receive a full test day in a USF2000 Championship car and one full day in a Star Mazda Championship car as part of the Mazda Road to Indy test at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in October 2012. The top three drivers from the LaTam Challenge Series, a VW-based formula car series in Mexico, will each receive a one-day test in a Star Mazda car as part of the Mazda Road to Indy test at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in October 2012. Both the Quebec-based Formula Tour 1600 series and the Ontario-based Toyo Tires F1600 Championship series champions in 2012 will each receive a one day test in a USF200 car at the Mazda Road to Indy test at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in October 2012. “There’s a clearly defined path from karting all the way to the IZOD IndyCar Series,” said Jason Penix, Director of Grassroots Initiatives for INDYCAR. “Skip Barber already has ties to the Mazda Road to Indy by awarding a scholarship for a driver to race in USF2000, and today’s announcement solidifies the ladder.

  • Juncos Racing Stands out in Rookie Firestone Indy Lights Season
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Abby Heffron Phone: 816-694-1685 Email: [email protected] Advancing in the Mazda Road to Indy: Juncos Racing Stands Out in Rookie Firestone Indy Lights Season Brownsburg, IN (October 1, 2012) – Completing their rookie season in the 2012 Firestone Indy Lights Series, Juncos Racing made a strong impression recording a fastest lap at the Freedom 100 and finishing multiple times inside the Top-10 in their move into the next level in the Mazda Road to Indy. While running in the Firestone Indy Lights Series, Juncos Racing ran full time with four drivers in the Star Mazda Championship presented by Goodyear. Juncos Racing entered into the 2012 Firestone Indy Lights Series with rookie driver J.V. Horto at the Grand Prix of St. Petersburg. Horto, 21, who finished the 2011 Star Mazda Series with Juncos Racing, moved up with the team and completed three races in #86 Juncos Racing car. Horto and Juncos Racing made a big impression in their rookie season at the Freedom 100 by recording the fastest lap of the race. Horto recorded a seventh place at the Freedom 100 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Grand Prix of Barber at Barber Motorsports Park and finished 13th in his first race at the Grand Prix of St. Petersburg. By moving his race team to the United States, Ricardo Juncos gained more opportunities to build his team into the next level of racing and compete for this first time this season at the world’s most famous race track, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. “When we were at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway to start the Freedom 100 this year, I was making my 10 year mark in the USA since I moved from Argentina,” said Juncos.
