The Indianapolis Star reports that Hideki Mutoh and his Formula Dream sponsorship appear to be headed to Newman/Haas/Lanigan Racing as a partner to Graham Rahal and Alex Lloyd. Mutoh, who advanced to Indy cars with the assistance of Honda's Formula Dream development program for Japanese drivers, has been with Andretti Green Racing for the past two years. However, the Andretti squad is expected to field Ryan Hunter-Reay next year with the backing of IZOD.
In other news, Alex Tagliani's team, Fazzt Race team, is working with a lot of new partners and will announce their sponsor lineup in January. Fazzt Race Team is owned by Jim Freudenberg, Andre Azzi and Jason Priestly. Long time Walker Racing team manger Rob Edwards will move over to manage the new team and Dario Franchitti's former enigineer, Allen McDonald, will lead the team's engineering department. The team is currently in the process of moving into their new shop which should be open by the end of the month.
