Dale Coyne Racing’s driver carrousel seems to have ended, at least temporarily.
The team announced today via Twitter that Pippa Mann and Tristan Vautier will race for them at both this weekend's ABC Supply Wisconsin 250 and at the Iowa Corn 300, set for on July 18th.
Mann will make her fourth and fifth starts of the season and the tenth and eleventh of her Verizon IndyCar Series career. This year, she has raced at the Indianapolis 500, Texas, and last round at Fontana, where she finished 13th, earning her best result in the series thus far.
The 25-year-old Vautier landed a gig with the team for this season and debuted at the Indianapolis 500, finishing 28th. He’s been a regular ever since, claiming his best finish at Race 2 in Detroit where he finished fourth. In his only previous starts at Milwaukee and Iowa, Vautier finished 21st and 13th, respectively. However, he dominated at Milwaukee back in 2011 in his Indy Lights title campaign, and finished fourth at Iowa that season as well.
After the next two races, Mann and Vautier will have shared the garage for three consecutive rounds, the longest streak for drivers in the pair of Coyne entries this year.
