Indy Lights 2010

I've been trying to keep tabs on the driver signings for the upcoming FIL season. Here's what I have on the usual top teams ATM:

Sam Schmidt: Pippa Mann (Panther '09), plus two rookies; Phillip Major (CN) & Jean Karl Vernay (FR).

AFS/Andretti: Charlie Kimball (Team PBIR '09) & Martin Plowman (Panther '09).

Team Moore Racing: Junior Strous (HTP '09) WAS signed, but something fell through, and now that seat goes to James Hinchcliffe (Schmidt '09). The second seat goes to rookie Adrian Campos Jr. (SP).

Bryan Herta Autosport: Stephan Wilson (Walker '09) & Sebastian Saavedra (AFS/Andretti '09)*.

*Saavedra was just announced about 1 hour after I initially posted this.

Anybody know any others? What's up with Dillion Battistini/James Davidson/Daniel Herrington/Richard Philippe/Andrew Prendeville/Junior Strous/Jonathan Summerton/Gustavo Yacaman?

Yacaman will be running with Wayne Taylor Racing, a new team to the series. Check out the following link to see some of the people associated with this squad.

Sam Schmidt landed a great little dark horse in Jean Karl Vernay, (Three years in F3 Euro all as a top 10 runner).

It will be interesting to find out who's testing tomorrow at Barber.
