INDIANAPOLIS — Kyffin Simpson will join Juncos Racing for the Indy Pro 2000 Championship Presented by Cooper Tires.
Simpson will compete in nine events for the reigning Indy Pro 2000 champions this season.
“I am very excited to be working with Juncos Racing,” said Simpson. “The team has so much experience and success in the Road to Indy program, not to mention winning the Indy Pro 2000 title multiple times. Indy Pro 2000 is a great championship and I can’t wait to drive the car in our upcoming tests.”
Simpson will make his official debut in the Indy Pro 2000 Championship this April in the season opener at Barber Motorsports Park. The 16-year-old will also compete on the oval at Lucas Oil Raceway, Road America, Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course and the streets of Toronto.
Doubling up on race programs for the 2021 season, Simpson joins the Road To Indy Presented by Cooper Tires ladder after confirming a return to the FR Americas Championship, where he earned eight top-10 finishes last year.
“We are thrilled to add Kyffin to Juncos Racing and are ready to begin our work with him this season in the Indy Pro 2000 series,” said team owner Ricardo Juncos. “He is young and has great experience, and we look forward to beginning a great relationship and building on his career through our team driver development program. We want to thank Kyffin and his family for the opportunity to have him a part of our family here at Juncos Racing.”
