INDIANAPOLIS — Formula One test driver Mike Conway has joined Dreyer &Reinbold Racing for the 2009 IndyCar Series.
The 25-year-old Englishman was the British Formula Three champion in 2006 and spent the past two seasons as a test driver for the Honda F1 team. He also drove two seasons with Trident Racing in the British GP2 series.
His only previous IndyCar test was with Panther Racing last summer, and he plans his first test with Indianapolis-based Dreyer &Reinbold during the IRL open test at Homestead-Miami Speedway on Feb. 25-26, which will be his first laps on an oval track.
The IndyCar season opens April 5 on a road course at St. Petersburg, Fla.
