Santino Ferrucci to make IndyCar debut in Detroit
Santino Ferrucci is set to make his IndyCar debut in Detroit, replacing injured Pietro Fittipaldi.
Current F2 driver and Haas F1 development driver Santino Ferrucci will be making his IndyCar debut this weekend at the Chevrolet Indy Dual on the beautiful belle isle park island in Detroit, Michigan.
The young American from Connecticut will pilot the number 19 Paysafe group Honda for Dale Coyne Racing in both of the weekends rounds on Saturday and Sunday.
Ferrucci's debut comes at the unfortunate cost at Pietro Fittipaldi, who was set to make the Detroit race broke both his legs in a World Endurance Championship event in Spa, Belgium earlier this month.
It will be interesting to watch since IndyCar's not have near the amount of assists as Formula 1 cars have. And the 13 turn street circuit in Detroit has to be the roughest and bumpiest course on the entire calendar other than maybe the street circuit in Toronto.
The Chevrolet Indy Dual in Detroit takes place June 1-3. Watch both races on June 2nd and 3rd on ABC channel 7.
