Servia Joins Panther

Panther Racing announced today that IndyCar Series veteran Oriol Servia will drive the team’s No. 4 National Guard Chevrolet this weekend at Texas Motor Speedway and during the June 23rd event at Iowa Speedway. Servia, who has worked directly with Panther through the team’s technical alliance with Dreyer & Reinbold Racing for the past year, was available after Dreyer & Reinbold Racing elected to not continue its No. 22 car effort after last month’s Indianapolis 500.

“Oriol has been part of our extended family for over a year now, so this will be a seamless transition for the National Guard team," Panther Managing Partner John Barnes said. “We know what Oriol is capable of, and our team is always happy to add a driver that can contend at any circuit on the IndyCar schedule. We’re also excited to get him more integrated with the National Guard, as he’s a perfect fit for their recruitment efforts in lots of diverse markets across the country."
