Isn't that the 2015 list with Tan replacing the Champion?

There's a ton of interesting buzz in the paddock right now. I'll be working on a new story for my Insider blog next week. A number of drivers looking to come into the series. Several are working hard to move into the IndyCar series as well.

Uruguayan driver Santiago Urrutia has announced that he's trying to get the budget to return to Indy Lights in 2017 with Schmidt.

Hey guys,
I'll be posting an Indy Lights update on my blog tomorrow (Wednesday). I'm also breaking some info through my Twitter feed - @MRTI_Insider Looks like the Chris Griffis Memorial Test at Indy this coming weekend will be interesting for the entire Mazda Road to Indy ladder. |

Here it is. My initial 2017 'Projection' piece on my blog. I'll try to answer any questions you guys might have. I think 2017 is going to be a solid season.

Urrutia just needs the budget, the rest is ready.

if he is not able to get a Lights budget - then he has no chance to get into IndyCar I think

don't think he'll be on the grid again.
Perhaps IndyCar or something else. |

Sam Schmidt has shut down his Indy Lights team.
So my Santiago Urrutia has no ride |

I heard somewhere, I think it was interview with Stoneman himself that he wants to come back if can't pull off full season deal in ICS, and do standalone Indy 500. I think he is back.

I heard Schmidt decided to focus on a third Indycar when he couldn't get the South American drivers to pay the full season budget up front (probably motivated by Enerson quitting mid-season to take his money to Dale Coyne). Negrao is testing with other teams, not sure about Urrutia.
Interesting if that's true, perhaps Stellrecht are willing to fund another season? I haven't seen him testing anywhere. Andretti have been running Nico Jamin, Richard Gonda, Ryan Norman (SCCA Atlantic champion) and Colton Herta so far. Last edited by 10TENTHS; 18 Nov 2016 at 22:58. |

Santiago Urrutia is struggling to get the budget to race in North America.
He doesn't discard racing in Argentinan tin-tops. |

What does he need? 1.3M, 1.4M in total for a good ride? If can't get that, I doubt he'd challenge for any full season seats in ICS. There are opportunities in Pirelli WC, and still in IMSA as well.
