2017 Ryan Hunter-Reay Signed Race Used Andretti Autosport IndyCar Helmet
This helmet was used by Ryan Hunter-Reay at St. Pete and the Grand Prix of Indianapolis, among other races, during the 2017 season while driving for Andretti Autosport. The helmet was also used by Hunter-Reay in the WeatherTech SportsCar Championship.
Ryan Hunter-Reay ended the 2021 season as one of pillars of the NTT IndyCar Series.
An 18-time race winner in IndyCar the Floridian, who made his Champ Car debut in 2003 with Stefan Johansson's team, was the winningest active American driver until Josef Newgarden surpassed his total during the 2021 season. Hunter-Reay won his first Champ Car race at Surfers Paradise in 2003 and dominated the 2004 race at the historic Milwaukee Mile, leading all 250 laps for Keith Wiggins' Herdez Racing team.
Hunter-Reay debuted in the Indy Racing League in 2007 with Rahal Letterman Racing. His first race was in a relief role at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course, where he finished seventh. Hunter-Reay had reasonable success with the smaller A.J. Foyt and Tony George teams before securing his big chance with Michael Andretti's team for the start of the 2010 season.
Hunter-Reay's deal was only for a limited number of races, but he masterfully won the Long Beach race in his fourth start with the team, which sealed his future within the organization.
Hunter-Reay won 16 races with Andretti Autosport, highlighted by the 2014 Indianapolis 500 win in which he dueled with Helio Castroneves of Team Penske in the final laps. Hunter-Reay's 2012 IndyCar season ended with his lone Series Championship, a four-win year.
Hunter-Reay will race elsewhere in 2022, but has been a staple of IndyCar for nearly two decades, driving for six different teams.
Hunter-Reay also has been a regular competitor at the Race of Champions, as well as being a known sports car ace, with wins at the Sebring 12 Hours and the Petit Le Mans to go along with his podiums at the Rolex 24 of Daytona.
This helmet is signed in silver marker pen by Hunter-Reay and is from his personal collection.
The helmet comes with a Certificate Of Authenticity.
