2024 INDY NXT by Firestone - Default Livery

Stylish and speedy, Myles Rowe makes his debut in INDY NXT by Firestone in the 2024 season as the 2023 USF Pro 2000 champion, rising one step closer to the NTT INDYCAR SERIES. Rowe joins HMD Motorsports w/ Force Indy, a pilot program of Penske Entertainment’s Race for Equality and Change.

And like many drivers, he began his passion for racing through karting. Following a successful karting debut, Rowe continued to add to his resume: Lucas Oil School Formula Racecar Winter Series champion and two successful seasons in USF2000 (2021-22).

In August 2021, Rowe became the first Black driver to win an INDYCAR-sanctioned race at New Jersey Motorsports Park in his first season in USF2000. That season, Rowe earned a season-high five victories and three poles, 10 podium finishes, 13 top-five finishes and ended up just six points shy of the championship.

Outside of the track, Rowe enjoys playing guitar, skateboarding, hiking, photography and keeping up with latest fashion trends. Rowe graduated in 2022 from Pace University Manhattan, majoring in film and screen studies, and is arguably the most fashion-forward INDY NXT driver on the 2024 grid.

TEAM INFO

Entering the motorsports scene in 2019, HMD Motorsports took over leadership of BN Racing’s INDY NXT by Firestone team partway through the season. Beginning a complete overhaul, the team moved to the Indianapolis area and began hiring new and highly experienced personnel as it prepared for the 2020 season. However, the worldwide pandemic forced the cancellation of the 2020 season, and HMD Motorsports turned to FR Americas.

The team returned to the INDYCAR paddock in 2021 as it made its official INDY NXT by Firestone debut as a rookie team. Focusing on the continued growth of the program, HMD ran four entries. In its first season, HMD Motorsports claimed 10 wins and 33 podiums on their way to winning the final series team championship as David Malukas finished second in the drivers’ championship.

In 2022, HMD Motorsports’ growth continued as the team expanded to four full-time entries and four part-time entries in INDY NXT by Firestone while also partnering with Dale Coyne Racing in the NTT INDYCAR SERIES to run graduate David Malukas. Claiming seven wins and 15 podiums in the 14-race calendar, HMD Motorsports continued its streak of INDY NXT success as Linus Lundqvist secured the overall championship.
