Tracy to make IndyCar comeback
Paul Tracy will make his IndyCar comeback in his home race at Edmonton next weekend
The Canadian won't drive at Mid-Ohio this weekend, but has agreed a deal with Vision Racing to drive their No.22 entry at Edmonton, which will be a one-off appearance for now with assistance from Walker Racing.
It will be the Champ Car veteran's first IndyCar outing since 2002 and he's delighted to be back in open-wheel racing.
"I'm excited about the opportunity," he said. "I've been away for a little while, but I want to be back in a car and this is the first step to getting back.
"We have a big job ahead of us but everyone is giving it their best try."
Vision Racing team owner and IndyCar boss Tony George added: "This entire season has been about going the extra mile to take advantage of unification wherever possible to grow our sport.
"This is a great opportunity for the IndyCar Series, and Vision Racing, to bring back a great driver and colourful character for, not just our Canadian fans, but for all IndyCar fans.
"This could not have happened without the support of the league, the promoter and the sponsors."
