Enzo Fittipaldi moves to the Indy NXT series.

      Enzo Fittipaldi, the younger brother of Pietro Fittipaldi, who is currently working with Cadillac F1, has made the definitive decision to continue his career in American racing. Next year he will compete in the Indy NXT junior series for HMD Motorsports.

      A year ago Enzo left Formula 2, where he spent four partial seasons, scored two wins and reached the podium several times. In 2025 the 24-year-old Brazilian not only raced in endurance events in the European Le Mans series, but also twice took part in IndyCar tests, driving an Arrow McLaren.

      He recently tested with HMD Motorsports on the road-course layout of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, getting to grips with a Dallara IL-15 powered by a 450-hp Mazda-AER turbo engine — the kind of car he is set to drive in 2026.

      Enzo Fittipaldi: “I am proud to begin a new chapter with HMD Motorsports, for whom I will compete in the Indy NXT series. Racing in Europe allowed me to gain valuable experience and improve my professional skills. It feels like the perfect time to take the next step: my goal is IndyCar, and this season begins the movement toward that goal.”

      Enzo is the grandson of the legendary Emerson Fittipaldi, founder of the Brazilian racing dynasty, a two-time world champion and CART/IndyCar title holder, who also won the Indy 500 twice.
