ESPY’s Best Driver winner Ryan Hunter-Reay will make his eighth Mid-Ohio start this weekend behind the wheel of the No. 1 Chevy. The DHL driver made his best start at the 13-turn circuit in 2003 (from third) and holds a best finish of third (2003, 2011) in Lexington, Ohio. The 32-year-old Florida resident has recorded two wins and two pole starts this season and sits third in the championship points standings, less than 70 points from the lead.
“T he race at Mid-Ohio is one of my favorite rounds of the IndyCar schedule. Mid-Ohio is the heart of American open-wheel road racing and I have some great memories over the years at this track. I’ve been on the podium a few times here, and following tough weekends we had at Pocono and Toronto, we’ll be working hard to rebound and cut into the championship points lead. We’re a tenacious bunch at Andretti Autosport and we’re determined to make a late season run at the championship.”
Did You Know: When away from the track, Ryan spends his time enjoying on (and in) the water activities including free diving. Read more about how he uses free diving to stay fit and competitive.
