Dalton Kellett made his NTT IndyCar racing debut this year driving on the A.J. Foyt Racing Team and he ran in the Indy 500 as a rookie. He drove for Andretti Autosport in the first three years of his Indy Lights career before moving to Juncos Racing for his final Lights season in 2019. Dalton was born in Toronto, Ontario, and currently lives in Indianapolis. With a life-long passion for racing, he began karting at 14. He climbed the Canadian and international go-karting ranks and competed in the Road to Indy open-wheel development program. His passion for academics and STEM has been coupled with racing. Balancing education and racing was a cornerstone of his go-karting and junior open wheel career. Dalton graduated from the Toronto French School in 2011, with a bilingual IB diploma, and from Queen’s University in 2015, with a Bachelor of Science in Engineering Physics.
