INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA (January 14, 2019) – Davey Hamilton, Jr. will kick off his 2019 international racing campaign this weekend during the Race of Champions at Foro Sol Stadium in Mexico City. Hamilton will be competing alongside nine other competitors in Stadium Super Trucks, with head-to-head races supporting the Race of Champions.

The Foro Sol Stadium is located within the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez Formula One circuit. INDYCAR, NASCAR, Le Mans, and Formula One champions from around the world will compete in each day’s Race of Champions, with Hamilton and the SST drivers hitting the same circuit to close the evening. A few modifications – including steel ramps – will help the 650 HP trucks reach their full potential during the exciting head-to-head shootout format.

Hamilton, the 2016 King of the Wing Sprint Car Champion, is competing full-time in both Stadium Super Trucks and the USAC Silver Crown Series in 2019. He is relishing the opportunity to race outside of the United States.

“I cannot wait to compete in such a prestigious event at such a historic venue,” Hamilton said. “This is a great chance to show the world what our form of racing is all about and share the pits with the best drivers on the planet!”

INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA (October 29, 2018) – 2016 King of the Wing National Champion Davey Hamilton, Jr. will return to Irwindale Speedway and Bakersfield’s Kern County Raceway Park this weekend driving Glenn Hutchison’s #8 Winged Sprint Car. Saturday and Sunday’s events serve as the series finale for 2018.

Hamilton, the third-generation driver from Boise, ID, is making a comeback to Irwindale after a serious crash last November. He battled hard for the lead with more than half a dozen lead changes before hitting the wall in turn two. Hamilton was able to escape from the car under his own power, but later had a lengthy recovery process from a severe concussion and broken ribs.

When he was approved by doctors to return to competition this spring, he didn’t waste any time getting up to speed. Hamilton set the pole for the prestigious Little 500 sprint car race at Anderson Speedway in Indiana and also made his Indianapolis Motor Speedway debut in the Freedom 100 for the Indy Lights.

“I can’t wait to get back to Southern California to see the great racing fans and the beautiful facilities we visit,” Hamilton said. “I believe we have a great shot to get back to victory lane and set our 2019 season off on the right foot as well!”

In September, he returned back to the seat of a Winged Sprint Car when competed with the King of the Wing at his home track Meridian Speedway in Idaho. With the rust knocked off, Hamilton looks prepared for his return on Saturday at Irwindale and Sunday at Kern. It will be Hamilton’s first appearance in a Sprint Car at the state-of-the-art Kern County Raceway Park since 2016 where he finished fourth and won the series title.

INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA (November 3, 2017) – A diverse and exciting career will continue to grow for a third-generation driver, as 20 year-old Davey Hamilton, Jr. will drive the #38 Always Evolving/Leavitt Machinery Chevrolet SS in Saturday’s NASCAR K&N Pro Series, West at Kern County Raceway Park in Bakersfield, CA. The “West Coast Stock Car Hall of Fame Championship 150” will be Hamilton’s first NASCAR sanctioned start.

Hamilton will drive for Idaho-based Patriot Motorsports Group and participated in testing at Meridian Speedway over the weekend in preparation for the event. The 2016 King of the Wing National Sprint Car Champion has competed primarily in Stadium Super Trucks, USAC Silver Crown, and BCRA pavement Midgets this year including starts in the Little 500 and at Phoenix International Raceway.

The half-mile Kern County Raceway Park has been a good venue for the young driver with fourth place finishes in King of the Wing competition there in both 2015 and 2016. Hamilton will compete in the King of the Wing “George Snider Classic” on Sunday November 19th as well at the speedway in a busy month in Bakersfield.

Always Evolving has supported Hamilton’s efforts throughout the season. Driving the Always Evolving Stadium Super Truck, Hamilton scored a sixth place finish; two seventh place finishes, and nearly won the series’ first trip to Beijing China in July.

I believe we have what it takes to run in the top-ten and make a strong impression as we evaluate our 2018 program!”

INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA (September 10, 2016) – Third generation driver Davey Hamilton, Jr. made his Indy Lights presented by Cooper Tires debut on Saturday afternoon, finishing in the 14th position in the Impact Racing / Piloti Shoes / Kingdom Racing / Dahl Tug and Barge / Cocomo Natural McCormack Racing #34 at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. Hamilton finished one lap down in the 30 lap race after starting in the 15th position.

The 19 year-old King of the Wing Western Sprint Car Series champion and 2016 national series points leader made his debut start with an eye on a full 2017 campaign. He will compete again in Sunday's 50 minute finale which also serves as the championship race for the series.

"I'm glad it is a two race deal. Two races is great to be able to be here another day and probably improve tomorrow," Hamilton said. "Tomorrow should be a crazier race because it is the championship race. I think we'll be better tomorrow. Probably get same outcome as today with just being happy to finish. It is great to be here and I can't thank the McCormack crew and family enough for getting me here. We are a definitely a small team compared to everybody else and we don't have the resources but we'll get there."

Hamilton qualified 15th with a 1:21.047 second lap, a half second improvement over the second Friday practice and two seconds better than his initial Friday times.

He immediately jumped up to 14th after a spin in front of him and maintained 14th for much of the race. He moved as high as 13th on the second lap and ran briefly in P13 again near the halfway point of the race as well. His best lap of the race was a 1:20.8394 on his ninth lap of the race.

Hamilton began being overtaken by the leaders within the final laps of the race, including a close moment coming to the white flag when Garrett Grist jumped out of gear on the front stretch. Hamilton had jumped to the inside to let a trio of leaders by and narrowly snaked through for a three-wide moment.

"So I can tell you the last lap of the race was definitely the craziest lap of the race," Hamilton said. "Going under the bridge, the leaders were coming up behind me and a car in front of me came out of gear. We ended up going three wide and it was a tight fit and kind of hairy. I think it was a good experience to experience being close to other cars."

Hamilton and the McCormack Racing crew will focus on increased rear grip and more consistent lap times in tomorrow's second race of the weekend. The event is scheduled to go green at 1:10 p.m. and will be available on IndyLights.com or the Road To Indy App.

Davey Hamilton, Jr. and Jack McCormack are looking for additional funding to secure a full-time campaign for the 2017 season. McCormack Racing would like to run as many as two full time entries.

DAVEY HAMILTON, JR. QUOTES
"Yes it so it started off pretty stable for the first few laps then it got loose. We know what the problem is and we're going to adjust and get better tomorrow."

"I definitely laid back a little bit farther than everybody else (on the start). But I also knew going into turn one it was going to be crazy. Everybody kind of stayed clear and luckily I was able to miss a person instead of hitting him. Everything went good there. They are a lot more fun than the sprint car starts."

"It was tough for me to be able to keep my lap times consistent. Once I saw a leader come close to me I definitely wanted to let them by and not affect their race. There's some improvements I can make to be consistent when I'm alone and by myself out there. I def have a few things in mind for tomorrow. We'll just move on and learn from it."

"So I can tell you the last lap of the race was definitely the craziest lap of the race. Going under the bridge, the leaders were coming up behind me and a car in front of me came out of gear. We ended up going three wide and it was a tight fit and kind of hairy. I think it was a good experience to experience being close to other cars."

INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA (February 5, 2016) – 18 year-old King of the Wing Sprint Car Series champion Davey Hamilton, Jr. has come to terms to compete for Jack McCormack & McCormack Racing in the 2016 Indy Lights presented by Cooper Tires. The third generation driver originally from Boise, ID will be making his debut campaign in a single seater.

Hamilton hopes to follow in his father's footsteps as the latest American racer to translate asphalt Open Wheel & Sprint Car success into an INDYCAR career. Hamilton, Jr.'s 2015 concluded with his fifth Sprint Car win of the year at Madera in November en route to the King of the Wing Western Sprint Car Series championship and third in the national championship.

His father Davey, Sr. has competed in 11 Indianapolis 500s with a best finish of fourth. He also finished second in series points in back-to-back seasons in 1997 and 1998. He remarkably finished ninth in the 2007 edition of the 500 after a six year comeback from a devastating crash at Texas Motor Speedway.

"This opportunity with Jack McCormack is something I have been looking forward to for a long time," Hamilton, Jr. said. "We are working hard to be on the grid in March to challenge for wins and ultimately an Indy Lights championship. We still have some work to do financially but we're pushing hard."

McCormack's racing history goes back to 1966 in drag racing before a successful career in engineering and car ownership across IMSA, IndyCar, Indy Lights, and USAC. McCormack has worked with a diverse range of top drivers such as Sam Posey, Skip Barber, Pancho Carer, Roger McCluskey, Jerry Sneva, Roger Mears, Tom Sneva, Geoff Brabham, and Dick Simon.

McCormack Racing and Hamilton have spent much of the off season testing primarily at Buttonwillow Raceway in California. After several weeks practicing a third-generation Indy Lights car, Hamilton took controls of the current fourth-generation IL-15 for numerous testing days. Hamilton and McCormack will make a private oval test later this month before joining the series officially on February 24th for the test on the one-mile oval Phoenix International Raceway.

The team has tentative agreements in place to compete in the entire Indy Lights starting with the Streets of St. Pete March 11-13. Two separate Indy Lights races will be contested across opening weekend for the series.
