Dale Coyne Racing announced on Tuesday that they have signed a trio of drivers for the 2024 NTT INDYCAR SERIES season along with a new partner in INVST.

NTT INDYCAR SERIES veteran Jack Harvey will compete for the team in 14 of the 17 races this season, driving the No.18 INVST Honda starting with this weekend’s season-opening Firestone Grand Prix of St Petersburg presented by RP Funding and will share driving duties with INDYCAR SERIES rookie Nolan Siegel who will make his race debut for the team at the $1 million Thermal Challenge and will also compete in the Acura Grand Prix of Long Beach while also competing in the Honda Indy Toronto as well as attempting to qualify for the 108th running of the Indianapolis 500 presented by Gainbridge on May 26.

The team will again partner with Rick Ware Racing, with Colin Braun completing a full-season rookie campaign, including the 108th running of the Indianapolis 500 presented by Gainbridge.

All three drivers have tested for Dale Coyne Racing throughout the pre-season, and speaking about the news, team owner Dale Coyne said:

It’s been a busy off-season and we’re extremely pleased with our driver lineup heading into the 2024 season. I think we have a great combination of drivers that will work well together, as they’ve shown at our tests in Homestead and Sebring. Jack (Harvey) brings a lot of experience to the team and he immediately fit right in when he tested with us. Nolan (Siegel), like Jack, is a pleasure to work with. He impressed us at the Homestead test with how quickly he was up to speed for his first time in the car. We look forward to seeing what both will do this season aboard our 18 car.
“We already know what Colin Braun can do in a sportscar, and it was great to see him jump into our Indy car last week. He’s jumping into the deep end with little time aboard one of these cars before his first race but we’re confident in his abilities and can’t wait to see him back in the car this weekend in St. Petersburg.
“I also want to welcome INVST to our family of partners, we’re excited to have them onboard our 18 entry and look forward to building a successful partnership with them this season. We’re also excited to have Steve Newey join us as Lead Engineer on our 51 entry. He brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the team. We’re excited to get the season started.”

Jack Harvey, No. 18 INVST Honda – Dale Coyne Racing:

“I’m thrilled to join Dale Coyne Racing for this season. I want to thank Dale, INVST and many other supporters for giving me this opportunity to return to the NTT INDYCAR SERIES and continue this journey. St Pete has always been a city, and circuit, that I have loved and it’s great to have the opportunity to start this new chapter at one of my favorite events.”

Nolan Siegel, No. 18 Honda – Dale Coyne Racing:

“I’m super excited to be joining Dale Coyne Racing for Thermal, Long Beach, the Indianapolis 500 and Toronto in the 18 car this season. It’s a lifelong dream come true for me to be racing in the NTT INDYCAR SERIES. I can’t wait to make the most of this opportunity. Huge thank you to Dale, everyone at the team and everyone that has been a part of my career up until now that’s helped get me here. Thermal is right around the corner. We’re going to get to work, and I can’t wait to get back in the car.”

Colin Braun, No. 51 Honda – Dale Coyne Racing with RWR

“I’m so pumped about doing my first two NTT INDYCAR SERIES races at St. Petersburg and Thermal Club with Dale Coyne Racing with RWR. I want to give a huge thank you to Dale. What an opportunity he gave me last week to get a taste of the Indy car in Sebring. It was so fun to drive. The folks at Honda and HRC also made me feel right at home. I can’t wait to get going in St. Pete. It’s a place I haven’t been to in a little bit so we’re definitely jumping off into the deep end but I’m looking forward to getting going on the street course, continuing to work with the team, a great group of people there, and I couldn’t be more excited and ready to get going on this challenge. It’s going to be a blast.”

Dale Coyne Racing also announced the signing of INDYCAR veteran Steve Newey as Lead engineer for the No.51 entry.
