Dale Coyne Racing(DCR) is an American professionalopen-wheelracing team that currently competes in theIndyCar SeriesandIndy NXT.The team was founded in 1984 and is owned by former driverDale Coyne.From 1995 to 2000, the team was known asPayton-Coyne Racing,reflecting a partnership withChicago BearsgreatWalter Payton.[1][2]After the 1988 season, Coyne stepped out of the cockpit and turned his talents to the tutelage of several up-and-coming drivers. Once known for competing on budgets far smaller than most of their competitors, the team earned its maiden victory after 25 years atWatkins Glen Internationalin July 2009 withJustin Wilson.

Coyne's No. 51 entry is entered in partnership withRick Ware Racing,currently rotating drivers on a per-weekend basis for the2024season, withToby Sowerybeing the latest driver.

CART / Champ Car World Series

Dale Coyne raced smaller open-cockpit cars during the late-1970s and early-1980s before pursuing a career in the fledglingCARTseries. He attempted to qualify, with limited success, for each CART race in 1984, but his efforts earned him a CART franchise for the following season.[3]In 1986, the team raced theCoyne DC-1,which was a 1984 Lola Indy car modified to fit a Chevrolet stock-block engine.[4]The team reverted to a customerMarchchassis for the next season, with Coyne doing all of the driving. Due to budget constraints, the team utilized one of the only stock-block Chevrolet engines in the field. After utilizing the 1986 Rookie of the YearDominic Dobsonfor one race in 1988 with little improvement in performance, Coyne realized that the team could not improve without better equipment.[5]In 1989, the team upgraded to a pair of 1988 Lola-Cosworth cars for Italian pay driversGuido DaccoandFulvio Ballabio.[6]

The end of 1988 saw Coyne's retirement as a driver to concentrate on tutoring newer, younger drivers, although he contested several more races as a driver through 1991. In 1990, the team fielded a new Lola car forDean Hall,thanks to full-time sponsorship from the Japanese [insight] group. The chief mechanic, Bernie Myers, ensured a well-prepared car that earned the team its first start at the Indy 500 and scored 4 points during the season.[7]The team's mechanical expertise was recognized as both Coyne and Myers would be awarded the Clint Brawner Mechanical Excellence Award at the 1990 and 1992 Indy 500 races, respectively.[8]

For much of the team's subsequent years, it has utilizedpay drivers,who finance their racing with Coyne with either personal funds or self-obtained sponsorship. Often, the team ran one driver for a full season, with a second car being prepared for a rotation of drivers with only a partial season of financing. However, Coyne earned a reputation for quickly developing the skills of these drivers to a point where they could advance their careers. Drivers of note who had their first CART ride with Coyne included eventual series championPaul Tracy,the Indy Lights championÉric Bachelart,and eventual Le Mans winnerAndré Lotterer.

Despite the lack of competitive results during its first two decades of operation, the team was nevertheless a consistent full-time entrant year after year. Ex-Formula 1 driverRoberto Moreno,starting his second stint in CART racing in 1996, broke through with the team's first podium finish at the1996 U.S. 500.

Michel Jourdain Jr.took over driving duties for the team and earned STP Most Improved Driver honors from his peers, in 1997. Jourdain would continue with the team through the 1999 season. Meanwhile, the second car was provided to various drivers with few competitive results.

In 2000,Tarso Marquesled the team with 17 starts following a deal withSwift Engineeringfor the team to field a factory-supported Swift chassis. He was joined byTakuya Kurosawa,who drove 8 starts, including an inspired drive at Long Beach which saw Kurosawa becoming the first Japanese driver to lead a CART race before an accident ended his hopes of a Top 10 finish.Alex BarronandGualter Sallesalso shared the second car. Marques and Barron both recorded career-best finishes when the season closed. Barron, in particular, ran as high as second place inAustraliabefore suffering an engine failure, and was in contention atFontana,where he led the race for several laps and was in contention for victory before again retiring with an engine failure.[9]

The team struggled to stay afloat in 2001, following a short-lived partnership with theProject Racing Groupthat only enabled the team to contest two races.[10]Coyne reemerged the following year to field the one-off Team St. George entry with driverDarren Manning,which resulted in a competitive run to 9th place at the 2002Rockingham 500.[11]Later in the season, Coyne providedAndre Lottererwith his only Champ Car start in Mexico.

The Coyne team returned to full-time competition in 2003, fielding six drivers with a top result of 6th place by the veteran Salles, although the other drivers were seldom competitive.

The2004 Champ Car seasonwas an improved season with new sponsorsAmerican Medical ResponseandYoke TV.The 19 & 11 entries were piloted byOriol ServiàandGastón Mazzacane.Servià had Dale Coyne Racing's best season ever by placing third atMazda Raceway Laguna Secaand finishing 10th in the final standings.

In 2007, driverBruno Junqueirarecorded back-to-back-to-back podium finishes – Zolder, Belgium, Assen, Netherlands and Surfers Paradise, Australia –en route to a seventh-place finish for the year.

IndyCar Series

In 2008, the team's first year in theIndyCar Series,driversBruno JunqueiraandMario Moraesrecorded five combined top-10 finishes and both drivers led several laps during the famed Indianapolis 500.

In the first race of the 2009 season, theHonda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg,driverJustin Wilsonfinished third, which was the first IRL podium finish for Dale Coyne Racing. On July 5, 2009, Wilson earned Dale Coyne Racing their first win by winning theCamping World Grand Prix at the Glen,atWatkins Glen International.The British driver dominated the race, leading 49 of the 60 laps. It was Coyne's 558th career start as an owner or as a driver.[12]

On January 11 the team announced thatBoy Scouts of Americawould be the primary sponsor of the number 19 car for 2010. He also stated that Z Line will likely return to sponsor the number 18 car and that drivers would be announced at a later date.[13]However, on February 4, it was announced that Z Line would followJustin WilsontoDreyer & Reinbold Racing.On March 4, DCR announcedMilka Dunowould drive the number 18Citgocar for the entire season.[14]Duno's season brought her the best finish of 19th, though she failed to qualify for the Indy 500 and ended up 23rd in points while British driverAlex Lloydin the #19 car won Rookie of the Year, finishing 16th in points with a best finish of fourth in the2010 Indianapolis 500.Duno moved over toARCAfollowing the season. British rookieJames Jakesstepped into the #18 car for2011and four-timeChamp CarchampionSébastien Bourdaiswas signed to drive the #19 respectively for road course races only due to conflicts with the Le Mans Series, where he also competed. Alex Lloyd was returned to the team to drive in the oval races. Lloyd qualified for the2011 Indianapolis 500and finished 19th but Jakes failed to make the field.

On January 25, 2012,Hondaand its Honda Performance Development (HPD) announced it would power a two-car effort for Dale Coyne Racing in the 2012 IZOD IndyCar Series with their all-new 2.2-liter turbocharged V6 IndyCar engine.Justin Wilsonalso returned to the team for the 2012 season. In addition to the signing of both Honda and Wilson, the team has also re-signed renowned engineer Bill Pappas, "putting the band back together" of the team that combined to score Dale Coyne Racing's first win in IndyCar racing, at Watkins Glen in 2009.[15]

The team scored its second win and first-ever oval win with Justin Wilson at Texas Motor Speedway in2012and captured another win in2013withMike Conwayin his first start for the team inDetroit Belle Isle Grand Prixrace 1. In that race Justin Wilson finished third, putting two Coyne cars on the podium for the first time.Ana Beatrizhad driven Conway's car for the first five races of the season.

For 2014, Wilson would remain in the No. 19 whileFormula Renault 3.5driverCarlos Huertaswould take over the No. 18 for the season. Huertas would score his first career win at the first round of theGrand Prix of Houston.

In 2015, Carlos Huertas made his return to the No. 18 car and rookie Francesco Dracone drove the No. 19 in the first few races of the season. In May 2015, it was announced that Huertas had an ear problem and could not continue racing for the season. It was also announced that Dracone was released from the team. Pippa Mann then drove the rest of the oval races for the season in the No. 18 car and Rodolfo González drove the rest of the road courses for the remainder of the season in that car. After Francesco Dracone's release from the No. 19, James Davison drove the car in the Indianapolis 500 and 2013 rookie Tristan Vautier drove the No. 19 for the remainder of the season.

In 2016, rookieConor Dalydrove the No. 18 car sponsored by Johnathon Byrd's Group for the entirety of the 2016 season. He finished the year 18th in the standings. The No. 19 entry had three drivers that shared seat time, which includedLuca Filippi,RC Enerson,Pippa Mann,andGabby Chaves.Gabby Chaves drove for the team in the 100th Indianapolis 500 while RC Enerson had two very impressive appearances at Mid-Ohio and Watkins Glen.

For 2017, it was announced thatSébastien Bourdaiswould drive the No. 18 car, to be joined by engineers Craig Hampson, who he won his 4 Champ Car titles with atNewman-Haas Racingand Olivier Boisson, who he won races with atKVSH Racing.In addition, 2016 Indy Lights champion Ed Jones would drive the No. 19 car. The team had early success to start the season with Bourdais winning at St. Petersburg and finishing second at Long Beach and holding an early season points lead, while Jones was 7th in points after two races after back-to-back top-ten finishes. After a moderately successful race atBarber Motorsports Park,however, Bourdais' fortunes began to turn sour, as early retirements plagued the No. 18 both at Phoenix and the Indianapolis road course. Bourdais' season then came to a sudden end during qualifying for theIndy 500,where a severe accident left him with multiple pelvic fractures and a fractured hip.James Davisonwas hired as a last-minute replacement for the 500. Ex-F1driverEsteban Gutiérrezwas then signed to drive the car until Bourdais' return (atGatewayafter a rapid recovery), except for theTexasround where Tristan Vautier returned to the team. Jones would go on to win Rookie of the Year honors on the strength of his 3rd place finish at the Indy 500 but would depart forChip Ganassi Racingat the end of the year.

In February 2018, former KVSH co-ownersJimmy Vasserand James "Sulli" Sullivan formed a partnership withDale Coyneto fieldSébastien Bourdaisfor the2018 IndyCar Seriesas Dale Coyne Racing with Vasser-Sullivan.[16]Replacing Jones in the No. 19 would beIndy LightsdriverZachary Claman DeMeloand2017 Formula V8 3.5championPietro Fittipaldi,grandson ofEmerson Fittipaldi.[17]However, Fittipaldi would be injured during qualifying for theWorld Endurance Championship6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps,requiring De Melo to replace him for May and Texas, whileHaas F1 Teamdevelopment driverSantino Ferrucciwould debut at theDetroit Grand Prix (IndyCar)and finished 22nd and 20th. Fittipaldi returned at Mid Ohio in the No. 19 car due to be joined by Ferrucci for the final two races of the season in a third car sponsored by Cly-Del running the number 39.

Sebastien Bourdaiscontinued driving in the No. 18 car with a continuation of the Vasser-Sullivan partnership which had also been extended for multiple years.[18]Bourdais' best finish was a podium achieved atBarber Motorsports Park.Santino Ferrucciwould return to the team for the full season in 2019 running as the only driver in aDavid Yurmansponsored No. 19 car.[19]His best finish of the season came at the opening race of 9th with another Top 10 at theIndyCar Grand Prix.James Davisonwill join the team for the2019 Indianapolis 500in a partnership withJonathan Byrd's Racing,Hollinger MotorSport, andBelardi Auto Racingin a continuation of the partnership from last year but changing fromA.J. Foyt Racingcontinuing to use the No. 33.[20]

Chicagoland Speedway

[edit]

In 1998, Coyne designed and built Route 66 Raceway in Joliet, Illinois. This state-of-the-art drag racing facility drew the attention of Indianapolis Motor Speedway CEO Tony George. George and Coyne, along with International Speedway Corporation, would go on to expand the facility by forming a partnership and buildingChicagoland Speedway.Coyne served as president of the facility through its construction and opening season and along with George, served on its management committee until its eventual buyout by ISC in 2007.
