Rasmus Mathias Lindh[1] (born 6 July 2001), is a Swedish racing driver who currently competes in the IMSA SportsCar Championship driving for United Autosports in LMP2.[2] He competed in Indy NXT in 2023 for Juncos Hollinger Racing in the No. 76 car, after switching from HMD Motorsports with Dale Coyne Racing.[3] Lindh previously competed in the then Indy Lights for Juncos.[4]

Karting

Born in Gothenburg, Lindh began his career in karting at the age of six before going professional in 2009, collecting numerous titles in his native Sweden as well as partaking in the CIK-FIA European championships with the likes of Birel ART and Ricciardo Kart Racing.[5][6][7][8]

Road to Indy

USF2000

In October 2017, Lindh partook in the USF2000 category of the Chris Griffis Memorial Test with Team BENIK.[9] Three months later, it was confirmed Lindh would make his single-seater debut in the 2018 season with Pabst Racing Services.[10] Despite coming away without a win, Lindh achieved three pole positions and five podiums to finish as vice-champion to Kyle Kirkwood.[citation needed]

Pro Mazda/Indy Pro 2000

In September 2018, Lindh partook in the Pro Mazda category of the Chris Griffis Memorial Test with Juncos Racing.[11] In February 2019, it was announced Lindh would race with Juncos in the newly re-branded Indy Pro 2000 Championship.[12] In the first race at the Indianapolis GP, Lindh claimed his maiden single-seater win after starting from pole position.[13] He achieved one final victory in the second race at Laguna Seca and once again finished as championship runner-up to Kirkwood.[14]

Indy Lights

In October 2019, Lindh was named as one of Andretti Autosport's entrants in the Chris Griffis Memorial test.[15] Two months later, Lindh joined HMD Motorsports for the second test at Sebring, setting the fastest time of the test.[16] In March 2020, it was announced Lindh would partake in the Spring Training session at Homestead with Belardi Auto Racing who subsequently named him as their first driver signing for the 2020 season, which would subsequently be cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[17][18] On 8 September 2021, it was reported on the RACER web site that Lindh had rejoined Juncos Hollinger Racing for rest of the 2021 Indy Lights season.[4]

Lindh would return to Indy Lights, rebranded as Indy NXT, in 2023 with a full-time seat at HMD Motorsports in the No. 10 car sponsored by GarageXYZ.[3]
