Nicolas “Nico” Jamin announced his 2015 intentions – and a precursor of the season – when he earned pre-season Cooper Tires USF2000 Winterfest championship honors. The 19-year-old native of Rouen, France continued his winning ways as the season progressed, earning eight victories (including a sweep of all three races and pole positions in the most recent event at Mid-Ohio) and podium finishes in all but one of the 14 races to date. Jamin has tied Sage Karam’s record of 11 poles (2010) and JR Hildebrand’s record of 13 podiums (2006) in a season with two races remaining.

In any other season, Jake Eidson’s record in USF2000 – four victories and podium finishes in 12 of 14 races – might have been good enough for the championship title. Instead, Eidson lies 50 points behind Jamin going into the season finale at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. But Eidson has not conceded the title just yet.

After a successful program in 2014 that saw four Rotax drivers awarded a one-day test in the Cooper Tires USF2000 Championship Powered by Mazda, Mazda Road to Indy (MRTI), Andersen Promotions and MAXSpeed Group are pleased to announce more details for the 2015 edition of the Driver Advancement Program as well as the panel of four judges that will select this year’s test winners.

The first two levels of the highly successful Mazda Road to Indy – the unique driver development program providing a clear, scholarship-funded path for drivers to follow toward the pinnacle of the sport – are set for a revitalization as Andersen Promotions today announced plans to introduce a new chassis in each series.
