Harvey gets Coyne call-up for Long Beach

Nolan Siegel and Jack Harvey are committed to sharing the No. 18 Dale Coyne Racing Honda throughout the season, but the team’s sister No. 51 Honda is in a different position, where most of its races do not have an assigned driver. For this weekend’s Long Beach GP, Coyne has turned to an in-house option and nominated Harvey to step in and drive the No.18 – which had previously been assigned to Siegel – while Siegel will slide across to the No.51.

“When Dale called me, I was scheduled to go to Long Beach and help Nolan, just as I did at Thermal, and he said, ‘Do you want to drive?’ I said, ‘Of course!’” Harvey told RACER.

“I want to do whatever I can to help the team, and I love Long Beach. I take it as a positive sign that they’ve asked me to do a race I wasn’t signed to do.”
