Dale Coyne Racing has confirmed that Jack Harvey will be driving for the team in the Grand Prix of Long
The British driver was originally set to support DCR in California but was pleasantly surprised to be asked to step in as a driver last minute. Harvey had previously only been confirmed for 14 out of 17 races on the 2024 calendar, with Siegel filling in for the rest, including the Long Beach street course event. Siegel, racing a full season in the IndyNXT feeder series, will still compete in Long Beach with the #18 car and the team’s main sponsorship. Harvey will drive the #51 car this weekend at Long Beach before returning to his original car at Barber Motorsports Park. This opportunity gives Harvey a chance to improve his results after his last season ended prematurely with Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing. The additional race with DCR coincided with his 30th birthday and provides him another opportunity to showcase his skills. Practice for the Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach starts on Friday, with the 85-lap race scheduled for Sunday at 3:30 PM Eastern Time.
