MRTI: Team Pelfrey moves USF2000, Pro Mazda team to Indy

Team Pelfrey's USF2000 and Pro Mazda teams have relocated from Palmetto, Florida, to Indianapolis. The two teams will be housed at TKM Inc. under the technical leadership of Thomas Knapp.

"This is a prime opportunity for us to move forward and unite under one umbrella," said team manager Jonathan Baker, "and I must say a special thank you to Dale [Pelfrey] who has been extremely supportive and believes in the project."

Geoff Bushor will manage the F1600 program as Gary Neal will continue to manage the Indy Lights program. The move comes on the heels of a revised team structure that took place mid-season, allowing the team "to introduce a fresh image throughout the Mazda Road to Indy ladder series."

"The F1600 series is an important part of developing young drivers into the Mazda Road to Indy ladder series," said Bushor. "We are grateful for Dale [Pelfrey] and Jonathan [Baker's] support as we introduce drivers to a sport that is constantly growing in success each year."

"I could not be more ecstatic to work with Dale [Pelfrey] as we introduce a new image that is uniform across the ladder series. Team Pelfrey is easily growing to be one of the largest teams in the Mazda Road to Indy paddock," said Neal. "2017 will be an exciting year for all of us."
