Hunter-Reay joins Ed Carpenter Racing IndyCar team

Ryan Hunter-Reay has been asked to help Ed Carpenter Racing in its quest to find the consistent speed and competitiveness that has been largely absent in recent years. The 2012 IndyCar Series champion and 2014 Indianapolis 500 winner steps into the No. 20 ECR Chevy after the team and now former driver Conor Daly split following a disappointing run during the seven opening races of the season.

Renowned for his technical feedback and vast experience in a leading team, Hunter-Reay’s role is focused on assisting ECR’s roster of engineering talent with identifying its weaknesses and building for the future, with less of an aim being placed on achieving specific on-track results over the remainder of the calendar.
