IndyCar – The Wilson brothers reunited at Dale Coyne Racing in Baltimore

For the first time in their career, the Wilson brothers will compete in an event together. It will be September 1st in Baltimore, Maryland, for what will be the 14th round of theIndyCar Series. “I found out last week that I will be participating in the Baltimore race, rejoices Stefan, who will celebrate his 24th birthday on September 20. It was so hard to keep the news to myself. I am very excited by Dale Coyne's confidence in me. »

The new British recruit will drive the No. 12 Dallara DW18-Honda, while his 35-year-old big brother, Dale Coyne's starter throughout the season, will be at the wheel of the No. 19. “It's great for many reasons, Stefan continues. Not only will I be making my debut in IndyCar, but I will also be driving alongside my brother for the first time. It’s great to work together as teammates at Dale Coyne Racing.”
.
Justin is also happy to run with and against his little brother. “I am very happy for Stefan, comments the ex-pilot of Formula 1. This should make for some interesting racing as we have a similar driving style. » The first time the two brothers were together in IndyCar was last March, during pre-season testing at Barber Motorsports Park in Alabama.

Stefan Wilson participated until last year in Indy Lights (antechamber of the IndyCar Series), where he won two races in 2011. “We are very happy to have Stefan in the No. 18 seat for Baltimore, says Dale Coyne, owner of the team. Stefan is a very talented young driver and I know he has worked very hard this year. Fielding two brothers at the same time is also a first for our team. »
