Star Mazda Points Leader to Indy Lights

Charles Hall

Andersen Racing's Charles Hall, the current Star Mazda point leader, will make his Firestone Indy Lights debut as Andrew Prendeville and J.R. Hildebrand's teammates on the RLR/Andersen Racing team in the doubleheader at Watkins Glen International in Watkins Glen, N.Y. on July 5.

Hall, of Sheffield, England, will drive a white Dallara leased by RLR/Andersen Racing from another team, SWE Racing. Its livery will include Andersen Racing's primary sponsor, Allied Interior Products, and Hall's sponsors: Blimpie, Pardoes Solicitors and AccentBanking.com. It will be No. 77, which is the same number Hall uses in the Star Mazda series.

Hall will drive the Indy Lights car for the first time at a test on Wednesday at the historic upstate New York road course.

In the three Star Mazda races held so far this year, Hall has two seconds and one victory. The victory came June 7 in the first Star Mazda race ever held at Watkins Glen, where Hall led every lap.
