IndyCar – Daniel Abt testing with Andretti

Would Daniel Abt's participation in Formula E have allowed him to create links with Andretti Autosport? While the resident of the team of the same name faces the Indianapolis team in the new Electric Single-Seater Championship in addition to his GP2 Series program with Hilmer Motorsport, the German will have the opportunity to test the DW12 which rages in IndyCar during a test session carried out on October 27 at Barber Motorsports Park (Alabama).

“I would like to thank Andretti Autosport for giving me the chance to drive for the first time in the USA”, comments Daniel Abt who is 13th in the GP2 Series Drivers' standings with two rounds remaining in the season. “I will have a lot to learn but I am sure that I will be able to quickly adapt and take up the challenge with all the experience acquired in car these last years. I really see myself doing well in IndyCar and it's a good thing to be able to test the single-seater by showing what I'm worth. »

Andretti Autosport will also test Dalton Kellett from the Mazda Road to Indy where he finished tenth with Team Pelfrey. The Canadian will carry out a test session on October 6 at Putnam Park (Indiana).
