Subaru Rally Team USA confirms Red Bull Global Rallycross drivers

Subaru Rally Team USA announced that drivers Sverre Isachsen and Bucky Lasek will lead the charge for the team's rallycross efforts in 2015. Both drivers have renewed multi-year contracts with Subaru and will compete in the Red Bull Global Rallycross Championship and Summer X Games.

Isachsen, a former three-time European Rallycross Champion and Lasek, one of the most recognizable names in action sports, have been with Subaru since 2011. Last year, the duo led Subaru to their most successful season to-date in the burgeoning series, earning a combined five podiums including an X Games Silver Medal by Lasek and victory at the Seattle round for Isachsen.

Action sports icon Travis Pastrana will also join the team at select rally and rallycross events in 2015. Pastrana's schedule will be announced at a later date.

"It was an easy decision for us to keep them on the team," explained Rob Weir, Subaru Motorsports marketing Mmanager. "Bucky and Sverre put Subaru on the podium five times last season and continue to play a key role in the development of our rallycross program. Both drivers share tremendous pride for the Subaru brand and the success of Subaru Rally Team USA."

"The team as a whole is like a family and we have worked so hard together the past few years to develop this program and we are winning now, fighting at the top," said Bucky Lasek. "I'm so happy to continue to be a part of this family and the Subaru motorsports heritage."

Red Bull Global Rallycross will feature a 12-race schedule, its largest ever, for the 2015 season. The series will again return to the NBC family of networks and will include live coverage on NBC. Broadcast dates and times will be announced shortly by the series.
