USF2000 Series drivers, Billy Frazer and Jacob Douglas, are back in action this weekend as the intensity at the famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway begins to ramp up this week when the NTT INDYCAR SERIES and the entire Road to Indy Presented by Cooper Tires open-wheel development ladder takes to the 2.439-mile, 14-turn road course for a packed schedule of races on Friday and Saturday, May 13-14.
Seven Cooper Tires USF2000 Championship drivers representing five different teams have so far claimed at least one podium finish, with New Zealander Billy Frazer (Exclusive Autosport), who sits fifth overall, earning two second-place finishes and Bijoy Garg (DEForce Racing) and Christian Weir (Turn 3 Motorsport), from Naperville, Ill., each claiming a third from the opening four encounters.
Jacob Douglas will be looking to improve in just his third weekend of racing this season. The 16-year-old currently sits 16th on the points table.
The schedule for the Cooper Tires Grand Prix of Indianapolis will mirror that of Indy Pro 2000 with two 60-minute test sessions on Thursday preceding 30 minutes of official practice at 3:00 p.m. EDT. A single qualifying session will take place at 8:00 a.m. on Friday, followed by the first of three races at 11:45 a.m. Two more races will complete the agenda on Saturday at 8:05 a.m. and 11:15 a.m.
