The Dreyer & Reinbold team has confirmed that Tomas Scheckter will made an IndyCar return to drive the No. 23 car in this year's Indianapolis 500. The South African, son of 1979 Formula 1 World Champion Jody, has been out of IndyCars since ending the 2009 campaign with the same team.
Having contested last year's world-famous Indy event with Dale Coyne, Dreyer & Reinbold's latest confirmation means that the squad will be running three cars in this year's Indianapolis event, with regular drivers Justin Wilson and Mike Conway in the first two cockpits.
"I'm really happy to be back with Dreyer & Reinbold Racing and to be working with Larry Curry again," Scheckter commented. "I feel at home. We had a great Indy test at the end of last year and I feel that the momentum that the team has built on the road/street courses with Mike and Justin - we can carry that on to the ovals.
"Also, having Justin as my team-mate last year at Indy, we worked very well together. Dennis and Robbie have been very supportive of getting this done and feel like we have a chance to do great things at the speedway this year."
