Devlin DeFrancesco is a professional racing driver competing in IndyCar for Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing, graded FIA Silver. He has raced across multiple series since 2012, competing primarily in open-wheel championships and latterly in the IndyCar Series. His most prominent result came in the 2022 Daytona 24, where he won the LMP2 class alongside Eric Lux, Patricio O'Ward and Colton Herta.[1]
Over 12 seasons DeFrancesco has accumulated 181 starts across eight series. He won six races and took 21 podiums in formulas and ladder championships, beginning with three wins in British F4 in 2016 and two in Indy Pro 2000 in 2020. He joined IndyCar in 2022 and has raced 51 starts in the series to date, competing on both road courses and ovals; he took one IMSA WeatherTech win from 14 starts in sportscar racing between 2018 and 2026. His major-series exposure includes time in FIA Formula 3 European and GP3, though he amassed just nine and eleven starts respectively in those championships.[2]
In IndyCar DeFrancesco regularly meets elite professionals such as Kyle Kirkwood and David Malukas, drivers who won significant junior championships and have established themselves as competitive regulars in the series. He has finished ahead of Alex Palou, the five-time IndyCar champion, on two occasions, and once beat Lando Norris, the 2025 Formula 1 champion, in their single recorded meeting in British F4 in 2016. His full-time IndyCar campaign ended in 2025.
