American Open Wheel Racing season From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 2023 USF2000 Championship presented by Cooper Tires was the fourteenth season of the USF2000 Championship since its revival in 2010. When the top rung of the Road to Indy ladder system, Indy Lights, was bought by Penske Entertainment (owners of IndyCar) in 2021 and the lower level series changed sanctioning to the United States Auto Club, changes were made to the other championships in the ladder. This, together with the Indy Lights being rebranded to Indy NXT, effectively ended the "Road to Indy" branding, with the three championships below Indy NXT now collectively called "USF Pro Championships Presented by Cooper Tires".[1] The USF2000 Championship served as the middle rung of this ladder.
Simon Sikes won the Drivers' Championship at the final race weekend at Portland with two races to spare. His team, Pabst Racing, won their second consecutive and fifth all-time championship.
