In 11 starts at Mid-Ohio, Tracy has finished in the top five seven times, including five podiums, one win (2003) and one pole (2003).
“I want to thank KV Racing Technology and Mario for thinking of me during this unfortunate situation,” Tracy said. “It will be a privilege to drive the No. 5 Azul-Votorantim entry and I want to dedicate this weekend to achieving the best result possible in honor of Mario and the entire Moraes family.”
