Blomqvist is an open-wheel veteran of Formula 3 and raced in Formula E, he has never previously driven an INDYCAR chassis. Blomqvist is finishing up his first full season with the team alongside Oliver Jarvis. Through nine of 10
races, Blomqvist and Jarvis are second in DPi points, 19 behind Filipe Albuquerque and Ricky Taylor. They have only one win, but that came in the Rolex 24 at Daytona back in January. They also have five second-place finishes. |
