2020 Indy Pro 2000 Championship
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 2020 Indy Pro 2000 Championship was the 22nd season in series history. An 18-round schedule was announced on 12 September 2019, featuring six permanent road courses, two street circuits, and two ovals. Except for the two Indianapolis-area rounds, they were NTT IndyCar Series support races. The Indianapolis road course race was a stand-alone race because the NASCAR Cup Series Big Machine 400 weekend was combined with the GMR Grand Prix weekend as a double header so that weekend is full, and the Lucas Oil Raceway round, normally held on Indianapolis 500 weekend, is part of the USAC Silver Crown Series Dave Steele Classic round.[1]
RP Motorsport USA withdrew from the series this season because of travel restrictions due to the 2019-20 coronavirus pandemic.[2]
American Sting Ray Robb, driving for Juncos Racing, clinched the championship with two races remaining on the season.[3]
