As part of the opening of Firestone’s Advanced Tire Production Center (ATPC) in Akron, OH., IndyCar and Firestone officials announced plans for Firestone to become the sole tire supplier for Indy Lights beginning in 2023.
This sees the company replace Cooper Tires, who became the series supplier in 2014, after Andersen Promotions took on the role of promoter and brought the series in line with the other steps on the Road To Indy ladder, namely, USF2000 and Indy Pro 2000 (formerly Star Mazda and then Pro Mazda).
