The Star Mazda Series is a featured support series for the American Le Mans Series at IMSA-sanctioned events. Drivers compete in identically-prepared Mazda rotary-powered, open-wheel race cars in an annual series of 45-minute races.
Star Race Cars first started the Star Mazda North American Championship in 1991. The goal of the Star Mazda Series is to develop driving talent by acting as a feeder for many of the professional racing series in the U.S., including American Le Mans, CART and the Indy Racing League by showcasing talented young drivers at important professional racing events.
Formula Mazda develops new racecar driving careers by providing an opportunity for drivers to compete on the same racetracks that are used for major league events. Today, more than 300 Formula Mazda racecars compete in a combination of club and professional races. Many well-respected drivers are rising through the ranks from Star Mazda, including Formula Atlantic Rookie of the Year Joey Hand, ALMS 675 class winner Jeff Bucknum and Le Mans 24-hour GT class winner Bruno Lambert.
