MORE THAN 50 RISING OPEN-WHEEL STARS FROM AROUND THE WORLD HEAD TO THE INDY F1 CIRCUIT FOR THE 2013 MAZDA ROAD TO INDY PRE-SEASON TEST Indianapolis Motor Speedway / October 9, 2012 – A Who's Who of rising open-wheel stars from around the world – more than 50 in all – are headed to the famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the second annual Chris Griffis Memorial Mazda Road to Indy Open Test, Oct. 10-11. This unique pre-season 'audition' that brings together the stars of tomorrow together with teams from the USF2000, Star Mazda Championship presented by Goodyear and Firestone Indy Lights ladder series is fast becoming the premier event for young drivers serious about advancing their motorsports careers.

Trying to Develop American Talent Page 1 of 4
Trying to develop American talent Page 1 of 4 Trying to develop American talent Jeannie Broussal | Posted: Wednesday, August 24, 2011 10:52 pm With the influx of international drivers into the IndyCar Series during the 1980s, American drivers are now the minority in a series they once dominated. There are several reasons for this turnaround. When international drivers — who had no place to move up in their homelands — saw an opportunity to compete in a world class series in the United States, they began migrating to IndyCar. With the emergence of NASCAR, more young American drivers decided to turn to stock cars. Another reason is many young American drivers became confused about which step to take after competing in go-karts to get to IndyCar. Some made mistakes that put them way behind in their careers, and some gave up altogether. Tony George, Jr., the manager of business development for Firestone Indy Lights and the Mazda Road to Indy Program, talked about why he thinks there are not more American drivers in IndyCar. “It’s all about relevant training and experience for those who want to make it in open-wheel racing. A lot of grassroots motorsports didn’t change with the times with regards to new technology. When grassroots drivers are getting out-of-date training, it won’t take them to IndyCar,” George said. With the recent formation of the “Road to Indy” program, there is a much clearer path for would-be IndyCar race drivers. The program is fully funded by Mazda USA. Here are the basics of the program: Level 1: USF2000 Series champion gets a full scholarship into the StarMazda Series Level 2: StarMazda Series champion gets a full scholarship into Indy Lights Level Three: Indy Lights champion gets a partial scholarship into IndyCar Randy Bernard, the CEO of IndyCar, IZOD IndyCar series and Firestone Indy Lights Series, agreed. -

Spotter Guide
TITLE FIGHT DECIDED AT SONOMA: The Verizon IndyCar Series championship has only two eligible drivers, but the championship lead has belonged to one driver since early in the season. Simon Pagenaud took control of the championship standings following a torrid start to 2016 with five finishes of first or second in the first five races and carries a 43-point advantage over Will Power into the GoPro Grand Prix of Sonoma. Pagenaud can win the title with a finish of fourth or better. Joe Skibinski/IMS Photo WHAT TO WATCH FOR THIS WEEKEND: BAY AREA IS TITLE TOWN: The Verizon IndyCar Series championship will be decided in the final race for the 11th year in a row, with Sonoma Raceway hosting the finale for the second straight season. The Verizon IndyCar Series championship will be the fourth major sports title clinched in Northern California this year alongside the NFL Championship (Denver Broncos defeated Carolina Panthers in Super Bowl 50 in Santa Clara), NBA championship (Cleveland Cavaliers defeated Golden State Warriors in Oakland) and NHL Stanley Cup Championship (Pittsburgh Penguins defeated San Jose Sharks in San Jose). TOASTING TEAM PENSKE’S SUCCESS: Team Penske looks to add to its dominance at Sonoma Raceway. The team, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2016, has won five of the last eight races at the track and won the pole position six times. One of Penske’s title-contending duo of Will Power and Simon Pagenaud will celebrate a championship. Can they or teammates Juan Pablo Montoya and Helio Castroneves also provide team owner Roger Penske more hardware this weekend? LAST CHANCE TO CLAIM A WIN IN 2016: Indy car race winners Helio Castroneves, Ryan Hunter-Reay, Tony Kanaan, Charlie Kimball, Carlos Munoz and James Hinchcliffe have finished on the podium in 2016, but they are still looking for a trip to Victory Lane. -
