Juncos Hollinger Racing’s Sting Ray Robb says that during the NTT INDYCAR SERIES Summer break in 2024 the plan was that he was going to stay where he was at AJ Foyt Racing in 2025 but upon the news that David Malukas had signed for Foyt, Robb knew the writing was on the wall so began to look elsewhere.

Yeah, our plan was to stay where I was going into the middle of the kind of crazy season, if you will, the summer break a little bit. But obviously with the news coming out about David’s signing I could see the writing on the wall that I needed to look elsewhere, and so we began talking to other teams.

 

When the Juncos opportunity came about, we got the deal done with them pretty quickly to try to solidify a seat, and also because Ricardo was very excited. I’ve been in that garage before, for three years. I think that Ricardo is a success because of where he came from and his winning passion is a big part of who he is, and it bleeds down to the team. It starts from the top.

I’m excited to be back in green. I think the deal was something that we had been trying to get together sooner, but when the announcement finally came out, it was nice to get that solidified.

Speaking about the continuity that Juncos Hollinger Racing has heading into 2025 in terms of their engineering side, Robb said:

Yeah, it’s a little bit of a return back home. I spent three years with those guys in the same shop. We won a championship together back in the USF Pro 2000 days, and hopefully we can get back on some of that winning form again.

It’s a good program. I think they’ve done a good job to kind of contain the group that they have and have some continuity going next season, which I think is a big part of it. Not relearning over the off-season is a good thing.

Juncos Hollinger Racing head into 2025 looking to build on a strong end to their 2024 season which saw Conor Daly scored the team’s first ever NTT INDYCAR podium.

Daly joins Robb for 2025 as the Noblesville native returns to full-time NTT INDYCAR SERIES competition.
