21 July 2017

Get to know the future of IndyCar racing! We asked USF2000, Pro Mazda and Indy Lights drivers the same questions to get their unique perspectives on racing. 

What is your pre-race ritual?

Neil Alberico: Prayer. Have fun.

Nicolas Dapero: Once I am seated on the car i close my eyes, breath and say a couple of things to myself, to motivate and relax at the same time.

Dalton Kellett: I warm up – stretching. I also get in the car from the right side.

Colton Herta: I always wear American flag socks on race days.

Ryan Norman: Listen to music to pump me up before I get into the car.

Nico Jamin: I always get in the car on the left side before a race.

Sting Ray Robb: Prayer, handshake with my mom, and visualization. 

Anthony Martin: Music.
