Katherine Legge will be back behind the wheel of the No. 51 e.l.f. Cosmetics Honda entry of Dale Coyne Racing this weekend for the NTT INDYCAR SERIES’ return to the Milwaukee Mile.
Legge, the only female driver in the series, will add two more rounds to her oval schedule with the team competing in the two Hy-Vee Milwaukee Mile 250 races Saturday, Aug. 31 and Sunday, Sept. 1. Legge has raced in all the oval events this year in the team’s No. 51 e.l.f. Cosmetics Honda, with a best finish of 17th at Iowa.
Legge is only one of five active drivers in this weekend's field to have raced at the Milwaukee Mile. She has a best finish of sixth, scored in her first appearance at the track in 2006.
“I can’t wait to be back in the car this weekend with two opportunities to give the team some good results,” Legge said. “Our No. 51 e.l.f. Cosmetics Honda was good at World Wide Technology Raceway. It’s a shame I wasn’t able to take full advantage of that event. Hopefully our cars will be as good, and we can have a strong weekend in Milwaukee.”
Live coverage of the first race of the Hy-Vee Milwaukee Mile 250s starts at 5:40 p.m. ET Saturday on Peacock and the INDYCAR Radio Network. The second race will be covered live starting at 2:30 p.m. ET Sunday on USA Network, Peacock and the INDYCAR Radio Network.
