Luca Filippi to #98 BHA Honda?
Luca Filippi in pole position for the vacant #98 seat? |
In this RACER article by Marshall Pruett, Bryan Herta mentions that he if he can raise the possible funds, he would like to run Italian Luca Filippi full-time in the 2015 Verizon IndyCar Series. Filippi, of course, made four starts for the team in 2013, and showed flashes of potential.
For what it's worth, we here at AR1 hold the 29-year-old Italian in very high regard. And with Honda needing to bolster its driver lineup in the wake of losing both Josef Newgarden (CFH Racing) and Simon Pagenaud (Team Penske), Filippi would be a very good addition to the Honda stable.
