PALMETTO, Fla. — Andersen Promotions unveiled next year’s schedules for the two junior levels of the Road to Indy Presented by Cooper Tires — the Indy Pro 2000 Championship Presented by Cooper Tires and the Cooper Tires USF2000 Championship — which will feature all races in support of the NTT IndyCar Series.
Next season marks another pivotal year for both series with the introduction of new chassis — the Tatuus IP-22 and USF-22 — which will extend the competition life of each to 2026.
Over $1,213,000 in prize money and awards — including the per-race Cooper Tires Pole Award — will again be on offer featuring an Indy Pro 2000 champion’s scholarship valued at $614,425 to advance to Indy Lights in 2023, and a USF2000 champion’s scholarship valued at $406,925 for Indy Pro 2000 competition the following year.
The 18 races on the 2022 calendar for each level feature a blend of road courses and street circuits as well as ovals.
Additionally, Andersen Promotions will host five pre-event test days for USF2000 and seven for Indy Pro 2000 as well as the traditional Spring Training at Homestead-Miami Speedway, a two-day test at Barber Motorsports Park and the traditional Open Test in late September/early October.
“I want to thank all of the promoters in working with us to provide our competitors with a schedule that features all races in conjunction with the NTT INDYCAR SERIES in 2022,” said Dan Andersen, Owner and CEO of Andersen Promotions. “It provides a tremendous opportunity to showcase our teams and drivers at not only well-attended, professionally run premier events but also to the IndyCar paddock.
“The excitement surrounding our new cars in Indy Pro 2000 and USF2000 in addition to what we feel is an outstanding schedule alongside the continuation of our healthy scholarship and prize money packages will make for a great season next year.”
